    THE world's biggest miner BHP Billiton on Thursday defended its plan to split the company by spinning off non-core assets, saying that it would generate stronger growth, with a vote on the demerger set for May.

    BHP announced in August a proposal to create a new independent company by demerging some assets, including aluminium, manganese, silver and selected coal and nickel operations.
