TORONTO, ONTARIO — (Marketwired – November 15, 2016) – Plateau Uranium Inc. (TSXV:PLU) is pleased to announce the acceptance and approval by affected Andean communities and the Peruvian Environmental Authority for its Environmental Baseline Study lodged in September. The Environmental Baseline study represents the initial step towards production permitting and a full Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) study.
Ted O’Connor, CEO of Plateau Uranium commented: “Acceptance of the environmental baseline study by the affected Andean communities near the Macusani uranium and lithium project is a significant milestone for Plateau Uranium and we continue to receive strong social acceptance for developing the project. Acceptance and approvals for the design, scope and methodology of the baseline study received from environmental authorities is a further indication of Peruvian government support for the project and is the first step towards permitting future uranium and lithium production.
The Department of Puno, and the Macusani region, wants and needs industrial and social development, and the Macusani project will play a very important role in the region’s future development as we move towards establishing Peru’s first uranium and lithium operation. We thank the local communities for their continued support of our project and the excellent relationships that exist with the Company and our strong local technical and operational team.”
