this is cool i followed this link on the department of mining website: Documents relating to clearing permit applications or decisions can be accessed via the FTP website: https://ftp.dwer.wa.gov.au/permit/.
and then navigated to the folder for chalice's clearing permit application:
ftp.dwer.wa.gov.au/permit/9365/
and there is all kinds of cool information about the drill program.
most important first point is the location of the drill hole sites:
disturbance footprints are here, so if there is no disturbance then they can access the site now:
also 30% of the drill sites are on existing tracks, so 21 out of the 70, with 12 holes per site means approx. 250 holes can be drilled before the clearance permit appears are thrown out:
the supporting document is 345 pages long.
to think that chalice went through this whole process that took months and it was all signed off by the government and some random groups can appeal the grant of the permit; it's really a joke
