Adani Mining chief executive Lucas Dow on Thursday said the scaled-back project would be "100 per cent financed" from within the Adani conglomerate, clearing a major hurdle for the highly contentious proposal.

It has been revised down to a smaller rail line project and coal volumes to reduce the investment risk.  Construction at the central Queensland mine site will soon begin, the company says.
