PermittingThe CDO Ron Hampton was assigned these responsibilities along with MRE, permitting, mettalurgical and negotiating to final agreement, the tolling agreement with Maritime.
Permits we're required to strip the Keats Trench and expose the very rich E-W vein.
It's possible that a bulk mining permit was requested at the same time, as all that is needed to mine is drive a ramp through it .
Richness in grade and excellent spatial continuity in the form of stockworks might make direct shipping of Keats trench ore to the Pine Cove mill a possibility .
This becomes a very simple mining operation requiring very much reduced permitting .
Ronnie has done this many times before, so I fully expect that his accelerated mine development history has been replicated here.
