No Environmental Impact Assessment Required for Burmis
Micrex Development Corp. announced today that Alberta Environment has reviewed Micrex’s “Project Disclosure, Environmental Assessment and Conservation and Reclamation Plan” for the Burmis Magnetite Project in South Western Alberta and has determined that no Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and no Screening Report will be required.
Mr. Stan Marshall, President of Micrex, said, “This decision reflects the extensive work that Micrex has done to date and is an important part of the progress to application. This confirms that addressing so many key issues prior to making application for a mining permit was the right course of action.”
The Company has taken a proactive approach to the permitting process; engaging the public and government early and using the consultative process to help guide the project planning and design. Micrex has spent several years completing critical studies and consultation in preparation for its Disclosure Document. The size and scope of the “Project Disclosure and Reclamation and Conservation Plan” is evidence that even though this is a small project Micrex has made considerable effort to minimize its impact wherever possible.
Micrex is committed to the public consultation process and the changes that have been made to the project design and operations reflect Micrex’s determination to be responsive to stakeholder’s concerns. In response to stakeholder input Micrex made many beneficial changes to the project, including eliminating process water use and the tailings pond, adapting the quarry operation for minimal impact, developing an operations plan that provided flexibility in operating period to allow maximum sensitivity to wildlife and a detailed reclamation and conservation plan. These changes play a valuable role in reducing the project impact on the environment and the area stakeholders.
The Company has released the “Project Disclosure, Environmental Assessment and Conservation and Reclamation Plan” on the Burmis Project Website at www.burmisproject.com under the Latest News link.
Micrex is awaiting input from several government departments regarding various aspects of the project and expects this input to be forthcoming shortly.
During this period Micrex will be completing selected tasks in preparation for submission of the Mining Application.
