    Perhaps, but until we know what the impact will be we shouldn't make blind decisions. And we know enough that it's going to impact the species outlined above, let alone fisheries.

    I was involved in mine finance in Australia & I had no issue with mines in the outback where the environmental impact was minimal. Where I struggled was with mines proposed in the Kakadoo or Tasmania etc.

    This will be mining a very low grade iron in a way that is banned throughout the world.

Clyde comes to mind, and I don't hear any bodies moaning about the pretty cycle ways around Lake Dunstan that became a bi product.
    That Dam rescued Otago at the time.

    Farmers had to deal with crippling interest rates in the 20s plus worst drought in history. I remember my uncles pouring concrete during the nights to keep the farm.

    And pretty sure that the dam roading contract allowed a very small Fulton and Hogan at the time to invest in machinery and scale up the business. It made FH in my opinion.

    The rest is history. From memory I think the Beaumont dam was all go aswell but nz ran out of money.

    But when we're talking about the impact on things that we don't even know exist . . . where does it end?

    Well the things I have outlined do exist in the area.

    Not knowing what you are doing is not a justification for doing it.
    Hopefully you find my posts helpful, but in no way should they be construed as advice. Make your own decision.

    From BusinessDesk -



    The proof is as simple as infrastructure minister Chris Bishop’s blunt reaction to TTR’s parent company, ASX-listed Manuka Resources’ “disclosure” this week that Bishop had “invited” it to apply for fast-track consent.

    Bishop told Radio New Zealand that characterising a form letter sent to some 200 potential applicants as an invitation was “misleading”.

    Ministers only say that sort of thing when they’re annoyed, meaning TTR’s chief executive Alan Eggers has scored an early own goal in his quest to get this contentious project ticked through.


    I hope Bishop is so annoyed he tells TTR to f*** off

    And this is why we shouldn't vacuum up the seabed indiscriminately. We don't even know what is down there.
