Aim-listed Tertiary Minerals’ environmental project brief (EPB) for the Mupala copper project, in Zambia, has been approved by the Zambia Environmental Management Agency, which allows the company to start mineral exploration on site.

The Mupala project is located 12 km west of the company’s Mukai project, both of which are located in the prospective Kabombo Domes region of Zambia, which is reported to host multiple producing copper and nickel mines, including First Quantum Minerals’ Sentinel mining complex.

Among the company’s first works will be soil sampling across the licence to verify the identified soil anomalies, as well as surface regolith mapping.

The company also needed a letter of consent from the Sailunga Chiefdom as traditional owners of the land and surface rights, which it received shortly before approval of the EPB.

“The strategic position of our Mupala and Mukai projects in the Kabompo Dome region places Tertiary at the heart of Zambia’s mining boom,” says chairperson Patrick Cheetham.
