Matsa Resources Ltd. said June 7 that it received the final approval for the mining proposal, mine closure plan and project management plan for its Red Dog gold project in Western Australia, completing the project's permitting process and allowing mining to start immediately.
The company completed the tender process for mining and haulage, though finalization and awarding of the contracts are still in progress. Matsa also remains in talks over an ore purchase and processing agreement.
Mining at the Red Dog project is expected to start early in the third quarter, with final mining studies and feasibility due to be completed shortly.
