Newsflash - February 2007 Press Release

Since 2001, we defend our heritage and environment. Five years is a long time, but we have lasted and we'll still be here in 10 years if need be.

The courts ruled in our favour in May 2005 and again in June 2006 when the administrative court cancelled the operating permit for Goro-Nickel's plant. The plant's construction continues in all illegality!

Welcome to our site where you can learn about our combat.

In the area of the mine there are taboo places, paths, skulls, shells and conches. It's where the ancestors live. There is no language to remove these taboos. We can never agree the project in these areas. If Goro-Nickel goes ahead, they take responsibility for their actions, we say no.

( Charles Attiti, Chief of Goro village, 29th July 2003 - ICPE application)
