This camp is permanent. This following page is probably dated but has some good contact info: http://www.adelaide.net.au/~jonivar/NIC/leyre.html The Old Lake Is Calling! Calling people back to the land! Arabunna Elder Uncle Kevin Buzzacott, has invited all people concerned with the distruction of his homelands, to come together at Lake Eyre in protest against multinational Vampires, Western Mining Corporation (WMC). W.M.C. are the company who are resposible for the Roxby Downs uraniun mine. The recent opening of the Olyimpic Dam expansion at Roxby Downs, means that W.M.C. will be using a greatly increased amount of water from the great Artessian Basin. Previous to the expansion, W.M.C. was sucking about 15 million litres per day, and will now be licenced to take out about 42 million litres per day. The Artesian Basin is the life blood of the dessert. It sustains the plants and animals and the traditional people of the land. The anchient "Mound Springs", are a system of individualy unique springs with their own distinct eco-systems. The Springs, caused by water reaching the surface through fissures or cracks in the earths crust, have given birth to a unique oasisis of specialized flora and fauna and is the sacred spirit water for the Arabunna people. All this is at risk if multinational vampires like W.M.C. are alowed to continue their life sucking activities and disrespect the Arabunna Elders. All for their greedy, capitalistic plans, feeding the Neuclear War machine. Uncle Kevin is at this moment in the thick of court cases against W.M.C's head Hugh Morgan and Priminister Howard. The Arubanna are charging these villans with genocide, in an attempt to stop the Old Land from dying and reinstate the real Lore in their land. In response to Uncle Kevins call, since the 26th of March, a protest camp was established at Lake Eyre South on the Oodnadatta Track, where we, "Keepers Of Lake Eyre" (KOLE) have been living on a W.M.C. lease...reclaimed in protest for the land and the Arubanna. We need you, the land needs you, Uncle kevin and the Arubanna need you! So join our fight at Lake Eyre and stand strong in your spirit for the land and the people.
