RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Kk said in an interviewThanks Jetstream for posting the link. I had forgotten where I read some of that info, very helpful to re-read. Here is a couple of quoted paragraphs from the report (TCrelave already posted some of this).
"KSM Mining noted that it currently holds permits entitling it to commence construction on the MTT portals and the initial 100 metres of the tunnels, but not the entire length of the MTT between the portals. EMLI has advised KSM Mining that it must submit information regarding the composition of the rock along the MTT route as part of its application for the permit to construct the MTT beyond the portals. To obtain the required data, KSM Mining expects it will have to drill 40 geotechnical holes along the MTT route and at the MTT portals, which were planned for 2020 and 2021. As a result of a late start in the field work due to the COVID-related restrictions and subsequent reduced workforce, only seven holes were drilled in 2020. With COVID restrictions still in place, KSM Mining estimates that it will take until 2023 to complete drilling of the balance of the holes, two years later than originally planned."....
"Due to these COVID-related delays, KSM Mining’s permit application for the MTT route is not expected to be able to be submitted until after the current expiry date of the Certificate. KSM Mining noted that the water treatment plants need to be constructed before construction of the MTT portals can begin and it did not anticipate receiving permits for the water treatment plants and other infrastructure at the MTT portals until after the current expiry date of the Certificate."
