"Everything we're finding shows that something major is happening and we need to look deeper into the problem," said Isaac Santos, a senior lecturer in biochemistry at Southern Cross University, who worked on the study with Dr Maher.

This could be serious for all aussies, especially those in Qld and Northern NSW where coal-seam exploration is currently going ahead unabated without due consideration to potential environmental damage.

Re: AUSTRALIA - Vas amounts of methane gas leaking from the largest coal mine
Sounds like things are ramping up from deep within the earth itself. This in Australia, and also the high-pressure methane rising up in the Louisiana saltdome/sinkhole area.

Factor in the increasing earthquakes, and the many volcanos becoming active and erupting...and it has to be that the core is changing.

I bought a bargain bin copy of the movie "2012" the other night, and watched it. It was interesting how much of what they talked about has been happening around the world - quakes, cracks in the earth, pressures rising from inside the earth, etc., plus some mention of a new particle from the sun or something like that. Not quite the theatrics of that movie yet, but interesting just the same.

Depends how much gas mother earth wishes to excrete. My calculations for a mine of that size, a seam at that depth, and the latitude/longitude coordinates of the shale sub-terraineal plateau in that region, about 4 days and 6 hours, give or take.

I agree - what crap. And if Australia gives up it's right to harvest natural resources, we are nothing. If they tax the mining & exploration companies much more then they will all leave - plain and simple and again - we'll be nothing. Great way to completely fuck the economy here - turn the most lucrative businesses into the public enemy.

Gigantic gravity well is inbound deforming the earth's shape and causing internal stress. As the gravity well comes closer the earth will start to reel, crack, and, ultimately 10+ Richter EarthQuakes and tsunamis will kill millions of people.

FACT.

This is hidden info and known only to some insiders.

Sorry (and sorry to OP), I was just spinning a yarn. I have no clue how long it would burn, nor if blue flaming it would be possible (certainly not wise).

I just hope the gas is not of sufficent density where it actually could be ignited.
