RAPAPORT... Stellar Diamonds has received
environmental approval to mine at its Tongo Dyke-1 project in Sierra Leone.
The Environmental Protection Agency
approved Stellar’s Environmental, Social and Health Impact Assessment (ESHIA) application
for the company’s 100-percent owned project, according to a statement by the
London-listed diamond development company February 17.
“The approval of our ESHIA marks another
key step in the process of obtaining the mining and environmental licenses that
will allow for the development of the 1.45 million carat diamond resource at
Tongo Dyke-1, one of four kimberlite dykes at our Tongo project,” said Karl
Smithson, Stellar’s chief executive officer.
