Removed unrelated accusations of Newmont Mining
The article formerly had accusations of this company for other operations in Indonesia not involving Batu Hijau or Sumbawa. I removed them as unrelated & possibly derogatory. There was also an unrelated police -firing incident moved below. It was in the Batu Hijau section but wasn't there. Could be used elsewhere?

Removed material: Newmont has been accused of being involved in scandals of mercury and arsenic poisoning in Sulawesi Island,[15] as well as having been embroiled in pollution cases on four continents.[15] (see History)

Protests on Sumbawa where police fired on protesters of a different gold project did not involve Newmont operations.
