A decree allowing Provence Granulats to build a quarry above a former bauxite mine in Mazaugues, France, is valid once more after having been suspended in 2012.
Opponents of the project have found that the aquifer space below the proposed quarry area is much larger than expected and are calling for funds in order to continue studies.
In addition, opponents have sent a letter to the French Prime Minister demanding an explanation regarding the government's support for the project and the Mayor, who is opposed to the project, has denied construction permits for grinding and crushing units.
