Reunion Gold Announces Acceptance of the Terms of Scope for the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment on Its Oko West Project, Guyana
2024年3月12日 - 11:00PM
Reunion Gold Corporation (TSXV: RGD; OTCQX: RGDFF) (the “Company”)
is pleased to announce that the Environmental Protection Agency
(“EPA”) of the government of Guyana has finalized and approved the
Terms of Scope (“ToS”) for the Environmental and Social Impact
Assessment (“ESIA”) on the Oko West Project in Guyana’s Region 7.
Rick Howes, President & CEO of Reunion Gold,
commented, “We are very pleased that the EPA has approved the Terms
of Scope for the ESIA on Oko West, as this represents a significant
milestone in the advancement of the permitting process for the
project. The Company remains on track with its accelerated
development timeline for Oko West, which includes the completion of
a preliminary economic assessment (“PEA”) by the end of Q2
2024.”
The Company applied to the EPA for its
environmental permit in September 2023 and subsequently
collaborated with the EPA to establish the ToS for the ESIA. As
part of this process, the Company conducted meetings with both
government agencies and local communities in Q4 2023 to determine
the essential elements to be incorporated into the ToS. The
approval of the ToS is required for the Company to move forward
with work on the ESIA, which it anticipates submitting early in Q4
2024.
In addition to the approval of the ToS, the
Company has completed most of the environmental and social baseline
studies that are required for the ESIA. This includes the fieldwork
for the second phase of baseline studies, encompassing the physical
baseline (groundwater and air quality), the biological baseline
(plant, animal and aquatic ecosystems) and additional community
meetings. These community meetings were conducted to assess the
current socio-economic and health baselines, as well as any
potential cultural heritage considerations.
Following the expected completion of its PEA in
Q2 2024, the Company plans to advance work on both the feasibility
study and the environmental permits throughout the remainder of
2024 and into the first quarter of 2025, with the expectation of
being in a position to consider a construction decision in Q2
2025.
