POO Permitting At The Fondaway Canyon Gold Project

VANCOUVER – Getchell Gold Corp. has engaged services for the preparation and submission to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (NDEP) Bureau of Mining Regulation and Reclamation (BMRR), a comprehensive Plan of Operations / Nevada Reclamation Permit Application encompassing the entirety of the Fondaway Canyon gold project in Nevada.
The Plan is the next tier in permitting that grants a larger disturbance allowance sufficient to carry field operations through Feasibility.
Baseline studies, primarily comprised of biological surveys and cultural resources inventory, have been initiated and will be completed this field season. Upon completion of the baseline study reports WestLand will submit the Plan to the BLM and BMRR, which will include a description of the planned exploration and characterization activities and reclamation plan. Plan submittal is targeted prior to year end.
In addition to the Plan’s permitting of exploration activities at the Project for the next several years, the Plan represents a major value asset for the Company. The Plan will allow for the significant acceleration of exploration and drilling efforts, and include the hydrogeological, geochemical, and geotechnical programs to support the potential future development permitting of the Project.
