Description

Locals in the small central Otago town of Millers Flat are divided on whether a new gold mine will be a boon for the local community. The Millers Flat mine is expected to be up and running by the end of the month. But the process has been far from smooth sailing and while some are welcoming the mine starting up, others are worried about the impact on local waterways, Otago-Southland reporter Tess Brunton reports.
