Ihuraua River
The Ihuraua River is a river of the southern North Island of New Zealand. It flows north from its source southeast of Eketāhuna, joining with several streams to become the Tiraumea River north of Alfredton.

Eketāhuna
Eketāhuna is a small rural town, in the south of the Tararua District and the Manawatū-Whanganui region of New Zealand's North Island.

The town is located at eastern foot of the Tararua Ranges, 35 kilometres north of Masterton and a similar distance south of Palmerston North. It is situated on State Highway 2, on the eastern bank of the Mākākahi River.

Eketāhuna has become synonymous with stereotypes of remote rural New Zealand towns, with New Zealanders colloquially referring to the town in the same way other English speakers refer to Timbuktu.

The New Zealand Ministry for Culture and Heritage gives a translation of "land on the sandbank" for Eketāhuna. When pronounced in the typical Pākehā way, the name sounds like the Afrikaans sentence "I have a chicken" (Afrikaans: Ek het 'n hoender), making it amusing to immigrant Afrikaans-speaking South Africans in New Zealand.

Isua Iron Mine
The Isua Iron Mine is a proposed open-pit iron mine in southwestern Greenland, located approximately 150 kilometres northeast of the capital, Nuuk. The project was originally developed by the British firm London Mining Inc., which planned to extract and export high-grade iron ore containing around 70 percent iron from the edge of Greenland's ice cap. Ore from the site was to be transported via a 105-kilometre (65 mi) slurry pipeline to a year-round ice-free port at Taseraarssuk Bay, for shipment to steel manufacturers in Europe and Asia.

The project was expected to produce up to 15 million tonnes of ore annually, but development stalled after iron ore prices declined in the early 2010s. Following London Mining's bankruptcy in 2014, the rights to the mine were acquired by the Chinese conglomerate General Nice in 2015. However, due to continued low commodity prices and lack of activity, the Government of Greenland revoked General Nice's mining license in 2021.
