JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – TSX-listed AuRico Metals has submitted its permit applications to the Major Mines Permitting Office (MMPO) for its wholly owned Kemess underground gold-copper project, in British Columbia, Canada.
The Kemess project is undergoing a coordinated permitting review process, which means that all the required permit applications have been submitted and will be reviewed at the same time.
With the submission of the permit applications to the MMPO, the 45-day screening process, to ensure that the applications are complete, will begin.
“Once the permit applications have been screened and . . . accepted, the applications will enter the review phase, during which comments will be received and addressed under specified timelines,” the company said in a statement.
The permitting process is expected to be complete in the second quarter of 2018.
