Environmental groups oppose seabed mining plan, citing risks to marine life off New Zealand's coast.
Greenpeace and Kiwis Against Seabed Mining (KASM) are opposing Trans-Tasman Resources' (TTR) new application to mine the South Taranaki Bight seabed, arguing it could harm marine ecosystems.
TTR plans to extract 50 million tonnes of iron sand annually for 35 years.
Greenpeace has won previous legal battles against TTR and is urging the Environmental Protection Authority to reject the latest application.
Over 53,000 people oppose the project, which faces opposition from local communities and indigenous groups.
