Sandfire Resources Ltd now has all the necessary permits in hand for the development of underground mining of the Johnny Lee deposit at the Black Butte copper project, Montana, USA, to proceed.
The final Record of Decision by the Montana Department of Environmental Quality to grant a Mine Operating Permit (MOP) for Black Butte has been received by Sandfire this morning.
“With this final permit now in place, we can move to complete the final elements of the Black Butte project feasibility study and financing considerations. The final timing of that will be advised in due course once we have a clearer insight into the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our work programmes,” Sandfire managing director Karl Simich said in an announcement this morning.
