Subiaco, Western Australia (FSCwire) - The Board of RTG Mining Inc.
(“RTG”, the “Company”) (TSX Code: RTG, ASX Code: RTG) is pleased to announce
the completion of the audit of all mining operations pursuant to Department of Environment and Natural Resources (“DENR”)
Memorandum Order No. 2016-01, re: Audit of All Operating Mines and Moratorium on New Mining Projects. In line with the
President’s Economic Agenda, particularly on increasing competitiveness and the ease of doing business to attract local and
foreign direct investment to the country, the moratorium on the acceptance, processing and/or approval of applications for
Exploration Permit for metallic and non-metallic minerals has been lifted.
This is the second new mining policy measure in recent months that has been adopted by the new Secretary of the
DENR, General Roy Cimatu, following on from the lifting of the moratorium on government approvals for small scale mining projects
last month.
RTG believes this is both a welcome and positive development for the industry and looks forward to further
confirmed progress particularly in relation to the permitting of new environmentally and socially responsible mines which adopt
world best practices.
