Northcliff Resources has received a final key federal authorisation for the Sisson Tungsten-Molybdenum Project.
The Sisson project is located in central New Brunswick, Canada.
The Metal and Diamond Effluent Regulation Schedule 2 amendment (MDMER) authorisation process has been completed following an extensive consultation with First Nations and the public.
It has reviewed the design of the tailings facility, tailings technology to be used, and the fish habitat compensation plan.
Northcliff Resources president and CEO Chris Zahovskis said: “Completion of the MDMER amendment represents an important milestone toward project development.”
Prior to the authorisation of MDMER, the Sisson project received EIA approvals from the provincial and federal governments in 2015 and 2017 respectively.
