New Zealand: Gold diggers may harm the land, warn Greens

"Gold mining... creates run-off and no matter how much mining companies insist they will curtail and manage run-off, there is always down stream pollution.
"It's impossible to stop run-off in to streams and contaminants are quite toxic. That run-off goes down into creeks and goes into our estuaries, so there are consequential issues around mining that needs to be addressed before anything goes ahead."
