Lotus receives ESIA certificate for Kayelekera mine
ASX-listed Lotus Resources’ 85%-owned subsidiary Lotus (Africa), the owner of the Kayelekera uranium project, in Malawi, has received the environmental- and social-impact assessment (ESIA) certificate for the project.
Malawi’s Environment Protection Authority (MEPA) approved the ESIA in May and Lotus has now received the ESIA certificate providing notice of approval to proceed with the project.
“The formal and final approval to proceed with the Kayelekera uranium mine is a terrific milestone to coincide with the restart progress we are making. Once again, we thank the MEPA and, more broadly, the government of Malawi for the collaborative approach and strong ongoing support for the restart of the Kayelekera uranium mine.
“We will continue to work closely with the MEPA and all stakeholders to ensure Kayelekera’s safe and secure operation in accordance with the obligations under the ESIA certificate and in the best interests of our onsite team, the local communities and the environment,” says Lotus MD Greg Bittar.
