A new division of the Ancient Order of Hibernians has been set up in opposition to the proposed goldmine.

The Order launched the new 'Molly Maguire Division', in Greencastle last week.

Canadian firm Dalradian Gold wants to construct a processing plant.

President of the division Martin Tracey told Q Radio they use cyanide to extract the gold.
