JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) Aim-listed West African Resources (WAR) has started a $12.5-million feasibility study at its Tanlouka gold project, in Burkina Faso, with the mine’s metallurgical test work drilling programme also nearing completion.

“The company has presented the project to the National Commission of Mines and received favourable opinion for the mining licence application,” said WAR MD Richard Hyde.

He added that the company would present the environmental and social impact assessment for the project to the Ministry of Environment, Green Economy and Climate Change in July.

Hyde explained that the presentation was the final step in the permitting process before a decision could be made to grant the mining licence, which was expected during the third quarter of 2016.

"Metallurgical test work drilling is nearly complete, with core to be packed and airfreighted to ALS Ammtec, in Perth, by the end of June,” he said.
