Please consider signing this petition to stop the fast tracking of a gold mine that could poison the water into the springs.

Siren Gold Mining has been invited to fast track an application to mine in the Golden Bay - if it goes ahead the crystal-clear waters of Te Waikoropupū could be lost forever. Join me in signing to save the springs from the fast tracked gold mine!
