Churchill Mining

Churchill Mining Plc is a mining corporation from London, United Kingdom. Its main activity is coal mining. It is listed on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) of the London Stock Exchange since April 2005. David F Quinlivan is the executive chairman of Churchill Mining.[1]

The Supreme Court of Indonesia rejected an appeal by Churchill Mining to get compensation for a coal project that the company says was unfairly seized.[2] Churchill Mining has a significant thermal coal development project located in the East Kutai Regency of Kalimantan, Indonesia.[3] It also is active in Australia.[4] The company wants to be active in coal mining in Kutai National Park, which is a major menace to orangutans.[5]

Churchill appealed to the International Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes, asking $1.3 billion in damages. Indonesia was able to demonstrate that Churchill's licensed were forged, and the ICSID ruled against Churchill.[6]
