We know charities are struggling but would a gold mining company not go against the ethics of Marie Curie. As an industry gold mining is well documented and recorded as causing many cancers and life limiting diseases to miners & communities @MarieCurieNI

We need everyone standing up, being counted, shouting out loud no to gold mining. No more hiding, or sitting on the fence, if you want your land destroyed, your water and air polluted then continue to be silence. This is a matter of life or death, gold mining is a threat to us

So many questions needing answered! @MarieCurieNI @mariecurieuk who decided to take this money, was any checks carried out on this company? Was a letter of support signed or an agreement never to speak out against Dalradian planning application, we know this is protocol

Irony in action. #MarieCurie accepts charity from a company who will no doubt bring about more cancer cases if they get the go ahead. Another blatant attempt at normalisation of toxic mining.

This is project splitting under EIA direct and is illegal.

We have also been rudely censored by Facebook, videos restricted from viewing in the UK, why is Dalradian Gold hiding their incompetent? Totally unprofessional & untrained in one of the worlds most dangerous industry they don’t want people knowing the truth.

Very strange to be greeted by these messages on Facebook this evening! After 375,000+ views of our video Dalradian (or their PR cronies) must be trawling through the archives to gag the people of #TheSperrinsAONB - is there anything worth "legally restricting" in these photos?

How low will Dalradian stoop, cheap PR stunt during a pandemic. Shocking the western trust allowed a gold mining company who’s gold mine if granted could affect thousands of people’s health a photo opportunity like this. #heathbeforewealth

For those who still don't understand the importance of #SocialDistancing and #SelfIsolation maybe this will help drive home just how much of an impact it can have on the health and well-being of your loved ones and the vulnerable people in your lives. #StaySafe #WashYourHands

Radio Ulster thought of today. Whole piece on Facebook. Dalradian foolish claims on Carbon Neutral gold mining while planning to destroy bogland the real gold of the sperrins.

Reading between the lines of that letter it's obvious @DalradianNI understand the game is up, every line bleeds onto the next screaming for mercy. No, the only thing shown to destroyers will be door out of Tyrone. They are gone, they just don't know it yet. @Greencastleblog

So Dalradian are now proposing the first carbon neutral mine in Europe? Heaven help us. Never mind the obvious and pathetic greenwash, gold is mined not for trinkets but to shore up the global financial system that is destroying the planet

Good write up in this week's @tyrone_con - now 34,044 objections with less than 4,000 anonymous supporters - it's just a shame that this toxic company's cartoon graphics & nameless spokesperson are still given airtime. Thanks for raising this important issue @Darren_Reporter

POSTPONED. Slash and Burn: can mining extract us from the climate crisis? With heavy hearts we postpone due to public health concerns over the coronavirus pandemic. Let's organise in community and look after our vulnerable. See full statement here: https://t.co/PoRydDJ1gE
