Manila: Former Philippine environment minister Gina Lopez (pic), who led a high-profile fight against the nation’s powerful mining industry, died aged 65, her family’s media company announced.

A statement from her family’s media company ABS-CBN yesterday confirmed Lopez’s death but did not elaborate on the cause.
