Victory - today we celebrate

Victory! Greywolf have heard the public outcry and have ditched their exploitation plans for Golden Bay. This is great news

Stuff

"It is pointless Greywolf putting millions of dollars into the area to find out what is there, if the public are so opposed to it."

But before we all jump up and down too much

"If the company is to reconsider exploration in this area, the New Zealand Government will need to get the people of New Zealand to agree to exploration."

Greywolf's applications were clumsy but they are only the beginning. We will have to fight these exploiters for a while yet and the next application from a mining company will have considered the fate of greywolf.

Yes we celebrate today and walk along the beautiful beaches of Mohua but tomorrow we again set the watch.
