Mining company says no risk De Grey Mining said on Thursday there is no way its activities will cause mercury pollution. Executive director Peter Batten said the company will be drilling holes and collecting samples in the Puhipuhi Hills and the process is no different from what a farmer would do to sink a bore. Mr Batten said the protesters are misinformed about the risk of mercury pollution. He said the area has naturally high mercury levels and if it was a risk to drill, it would be a risk to farm there. He said De Grey expects to do test drilling some time in the next six months. radionz.co.nz/audio/player/2578018
