Mudgee Region Action Group, Wednesday, 30 April 2025 Email
Bowdens Mine is back - help us hit 10,000 signatures before it's too late. [Editor’s Note: as at

mine has 10,142 signatures but more is always better!]
🚨 Bowdens Mine Pushes Ahead! Let's Reach 10,000 Signatures!
Bowdens Silver has re-launched its plans for a toxic lead, silver, and zinc
mine - and they expect approval shortly.
This is a critical moment for our region and our waterways. Right now, we are just
500 signatures away from reaching 10,000 signatures on the petition - the point
where politicians take notice.
We urgently need your help:
ó°¥  Sign the petition if you haven't already
ó°¥  Ask 10 friends, family members or neighbours to sign too
Sign the Petition
If just 50 people ask 10 others, we'll reach the goal and make sure
Bowdens destructive plans are met with strong community opposition.
Bowdens Silver Mine plans to capture and use unlicensed contaminated water -
risking the flow of Lawsons Creek, threatening downstream communities, and
undermining the Murray-Darling Basin.

Together, we can close the loopholes that put our precious water and land at risk.
Every signature counts!
