Got family in the area Dalradian is trying to develop. There is pretty heavy local opposition, on the grounds of environmental concerns and the idea of billions being made from the land and spirited off to overseas investors. I think plenty of locals support the idea of jobs and industry in the region, but they seem quiet compared to the protestors. This suggests the protestors have got some political backing (last few paragraphs): http://resourceworld.com/index.php/irish-mine-may-prove-challenging-for-dalradian/
