BacTech Environmental Corporation (CNSX:BAC) reports that it has been awarded the contract by the Mines Branch of the Manitoba Department of Innovation, Energy and Mines.
The press release is quoted as saying:
The contract is subject to negotiating a suitable agreement between BacTech and the Manitoba government. BacTech has proposed a “no cost to the taxpayer” approach to the clean up. The Company will recover payable metals for its own account from the stockpile while treating the contained arsenic. The Company’s bio-oxidation technology has been used successfully in the gold industry for many years to aid the extraction of gold from arsenical concentrates, while stabilizing arsenic values into a benign form.
