Sounds MORE like you dont know what you're talking about ...

Already this is one of the larger gold mines in the country ... if they say 600 ... then 600 ... as least ... it will be ...

I know I will be trying to apply for a Heavy Diesel aprentiship, they had some a while ago and I passed it up been a retard, wont be letting that one slip again.

I live in Central OTAGO ... ... and WHO says it's the MINING COMPANY that is threatening them ... ???

Local droughts alone are causing enough problems without including the removing of lake weed and retarded Karp they introduced to that area a few years ago.

It's a "you scatch my back and I'll ..."

Try telling a stripper that.

But dont ask about the native local Skink population that IS in the mine area ...

If NZ was clever they could sell them to the Germans, I hear they fetch a fair price..

fuck the skinks, what have they done for us

Youll be surprised what can happen if you remove an entire species from an area.
Everything has a purpose and a use.

I reckon it'll have more to do with the company being absolved of any future responsibilities in regard to cleaning up the mess at the mine
And we'll get to pay for it.
