THE end of the nation's decade-long mining investment boom was underlined yesterday by the collapse of the $6 billion Oakajee mine, port and rail network, a project aimed at opening up a huge new iron ore export province in Western Australia. Japanese giant Mitsubishi blamed weaker commodity prices for the collapse, which came after repeated attempts to entice China to invest billions of dollars to save the development. The collapse comes as a bitter blow to Mr Barnett who has also had to contend with Woodside Petroleum's decision to walk away from plans to build a $45bn gas plant at James Price Point on the Kimberley coast. theaustralian.com.au
