Canadian exploration company Roscan Gold is hopeful that it will obtain a mining licence for its Kandiole gold project, in Mali, in the “near future”, having been issued an environmental permit.
This environmental permit is the penultimate step that precedes the granting of the final mining licence.
“This is a major milestone that significantly de-risks the Kandiole project towards a shovel-ready project with the mining lease in sight. It signals that Mali is open for business and continues to lay the foundation for further growth in production with a quick permitting timeline not seen in most jurisdictions,” said CEO Nana Sangmuah.
