Exploration Mining Company Groote Resources is planning to explore and potentially mine the pristine seas around Groote Eylandt. The Traditional Owners of Groote Eylandt absolutely oppose this mining activity due to the threat it poses to their cultural sites and the marine environment. Please show your support for the Warnindilyakwa people and the environment of Groote by signing our petition. Thank you.

I have been hearing so many stories from people who care about these waters and their connection to them. It is truly humbling to see that this concern is shared by so many of you who recognize the gravity of what is at stake for the Warnindilyakwa people.

September 30, 2010

I am truly overwhelmed by the momentum behind this because I never imagined so many people would care about these waters. This movement belongs to all of you who chose to pay attention to the Wernindilyakwa people. You are the ones putting this issue on the map.

Keep the mining companies out! The water is precious and we cant just let them destroy it for profit. Leave Groote alone.

So sick of seeing natural places get wrecked by greedy mining companies. Enough is enough.

Listen to the Traditional Owners. They know the land and sea better than any mining exec sitting in an office.
