G'day, The closing date for Submissions to the review of Schedule 4 land of the Crown Minerals Act 1991 has been extended. tvnz.co.nz/politics-news/hui-prolong-mining-feedback-3502407In Fridays Greymouth Star newspaper Minerals West Coast general manager Mr O'Sullivan stated that "the submission process would be a numbers game against a well organised and active green lobby". To provide for anyone remaining who wants to put in a submission in favour of mining there is a template submission form on the Minerals West Coast web site. The submission form could be left pretty much unchanged, or altered to suit whoever is filling it in. The form can be found at www.mineralswestcoast.co.nz/new.htmland then clicking the link on the top of the page at " #17 28 April 2010 Schedule 4 Submission template (Microsoft Word document)".
Regards, Rob (RKC)

Mines of the sort they seemed to be after don’t appear out of hype and a few press releases. The media beatup made it sound like they were expecting a gold rush, without the gold. Big hardrock mines, for example, can take a dozen years from finding a deposit to your first pour. Selling the idea that NZ would like to see some exploration dollars being spent in the country was good. They could have been a lot lower key and peeved off a lot less people though.
These days Greenfield prospecting with a diamond rig can set you back big dollars. Upwards of $200 per metre. $10M budgets don’t cut it. You need more. $50M might find you a deposit to then start sinking some serious money into developing a mine. Nobody is going to sink that sort of money into exploring without a decent surety that you’ll a good chance at a payback.
Hey, we’ve spent $50M and found this great deposit just next to Wellington, what say you now? What’s that? You changed your mind?
