Tarkine heritage listing – no new mines in the Tarkine

As Launceston awakes this morning, a clear message to Heritage List the Tarkine will resonate throughout the city.
Members of the group Groundswell have hung large banners in prominent locations in and around Launceston to highlight that Tasmanians will not allow the Tarkine to be mined.
On the corner of Tamar and Cimitiere Street in Launceston’s CBD, high up on the red gasworks framework, a message to the Federal environment minister Tony Burke reads: “TARKINE HERITAGE LISTING”.
