***WIN A GUIDED WALK FOR 2 ALONG THE PAPAROA TRACK***
TiGa Minerals and Metals Ltd a largely Australian owned corporate mining company; who has again applied for consents for industrial style mining of ilmenite, garnet, zircon and gold – an up to 50 years operation right in the middle of the beautiful Coast Road.
Paparoa Guided Walks in conjunction with Coast Road Resilience Group are running a raffle to help raise funds which will be used to pay for expert advice from hydrologists, planners & lawyers as well as other costs that may arise in our opposition to the mining corporation’s plans.
Our primary concerns;
- Degradation of the environment and adverse effects on endangered wildlife
- Mining effects on streams and lagoons, neighboring SNA wetlands, hydrology, and high water table
- Threats to the habitat of the endemic Taiko/Westland Petrel – this is the only breeding ground in the world for these amazing and endangered birds and a mere 3km away from the mine site
- Constant noise due to 24/7 operation and 17 hours/day truck movements along SH6
If you are concerned about the adverse effects of TiGa’s plans on people & community, the environment, local businesses and precious taonga species like the Westland Petrel/Taiko then please HELP by buying a raffle ticket.
