Northcliff Resources Ltd. (TSX: NCF) has reported that it has received a positive environmental impact assessment Certificate of Determination to Sisson Mines Ltd. from the New Brunswick government for the Sisson Tungsten-Molybdenum Project.
According to the press release:

In accordance with the Environmental Impact Assessment (“EIA”) regulation of the Clean Environment Act, the review determined that the mitigating measures identified during the review process, along with the conditions outlined in the Environmental Assessment Approval will provide the safeguards needed to ensure the facility can be constructed and operated in an environmentally sound manner.
“This important milestone is another step on the path to creating a significant new tungsten producer,” said Northcliff President & CEO Chris Zahovskis. “On behalf of the Sisson Partnership, I would like to express my appreciation to the Government of New Brunswick for the support shown to this project. The rigorous environmental assessment process has resulted in a strong project that will deliver significant benefits to New Brunswick while protecting the environment. We recognize the importance First Nations and all residents of New Brunswick place on the protection of the land, water, heritage and natural resources of the province. The Sisson Partnership is committed to advancing the Sisson Project in a manner that respects these interests.”
As part of the EIA process, the Sisson EIA Report was submitted to both the federal Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (“CEAA”) and the New Brunswick Department of Environment and Local Government in July, 2013. A federal decision from CEAA is pending. Permit applications for construction and operation will be finalized and submitted following a positive federal decision.
