The members of TTR/Manuka Resources locked themselves inside an office to avoid the activists serving them a trespass notice.

Send a message to political leaders in New Zealand, demanding an outright ban to seabed mining, so we don't have to keep fighting off this ridiculous and destructive project for another decade.
Watch the video of yesterday's trespass notice being served to wannabe seabed miners TTR, at their Sydney office, on behalf of Taranaki Iwi by Rukutai Watene from Ngāti Ruanui and Greenpeace activists. ✊ 🌊
- GP0SU8C8Q Māori activist Rukutai Watene from Taranaki delivers a ‘trespass’ notice to Trans Tasman Resources in Sydney, warning the company to not pursue seabed mining in Aotearoa - New Zealand. The notice was hand delivered by Rukutai Watene on behalf of Ngāti Ruanui and Greenpeace Aotearoa at the headquarters of Manuka Resources - parent company of Trans Tasman Resources (TTR) - sending a message that seabed mining is not welcome in Aotearoa. For over a decade TTR has been trying - and failing - to start an iron sand mining operation in the South Taranaki Bight. If it went ahead, the seabed mine off the coast of Taranaki would be one of the first in the world and cause damage to ocean life and habitats.
