Nevada Copper Corp. (TSX:NCU) announced that the State permitting of the Stage 1 underground project at Pumpkin Hollow Property in Nevada continues to advance on schedule. The draft reclamation permit was published by the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection on May 1, 2013, and two comments were received from NDEP regarding specific Schedule of Compliance. Nevada Copper and NDEP quickly agreed on permit conditions addressing those comments, which were related to the DSTSF and underground paste backfill.
As quoted in the press release:
On May 2, 2013 the NDEP provided their final technical comments on the application to modify Nevada Copper’s current Water Pollution Control Permit 2008103 (“WPCP”). That permit was issued in 2008 and granted permission to develop the 2,200-foot deep, 24-foot inside diameter, production-sized shaft that is currently well underway. This modification will permit construction and operation of the Stage 1 underground mine, process facilities mill and dry stack tailings storage facility (“DSTSF”) all located entirely on private lands. Two comments were received from NDEP regarding specific Schedule of Compliance (“SOC”). Nevada Copper and NDEP quickly agreed on permit conditions addressing those comments, which were related to the DSTSF and underground paste backfill.
