  • The current National Government  thinks mining can be a source of revenue to help balance the books in this tough global economic environment.
  • Gold prices are still extremely high, attracting risk-tolerant investors looking for quick returns.
  • New Zealand is very attractive to overseas mining companies as NZ’s mining royalties are still pitifully low, and its tax structure favours mining investment.
  • There is currently over 80,000 hectares of prospecting, exploration and mining permits on the Coromandel, all of which were issued without any community consultation.
