Questions continue to be asked about what I have been calling the Jiama\/Gyama Mine landslide in Tibet<\/a>.\u00a0 First, it should be noted that this is a misnomer – the event should correctly be called the Tseri Mountain landslide I think, so from here-on in this will be how I refer to it.\u00a0 Anyway, I thought I’d highlight three sources of information about the landslide that are all very helpful.\u00a0 Note that all have been compiled independently from my own analysis.<\/p>\n

1. An interpretative report about the landslide by Adrian Moon<\/strong><\/p>\n

Adrian Moon, who regularly contributes this blog, has written an analysis of the landslide.\u00a0 This is a very impressive piece of work.\u00a0 He has given me permission to make it available, so I have uploaded it onto Slideshare and have embedded it below.\u00a0 You should be able to read it below, but if not click here<\/a>.\u00a0 Adrian also asked me to acknowledge the input of his colleagues Robert Barnett, Professor of Contemporary Tibetan Studies<\/a>, Columbia University and Yeshi Dorje at the Voice of America Tibetan Service<\/a>.<\/p>\n
