Plaman withdraws; maar still vulnerable
........Dunedin city councillor Aaron Hawkins said the withdrawal ''would appear to be the final nail in the coffin of Plaman's diatomite dreams at Foulden Maar''.
However, the consent to mine the area belonging to Plaman was attached to the land, not the owner, and what happened next depended on how the liquidation went.
''The enduring preservation of the fossil record hinges to a large degree on what happens next in that process.''
The council would be discussing options to protect the site at a full council meeting on August 27.........
