Euro Sun Mining Inc (ESM) has initiated the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) process for the Rovina Valley Project in Hunedoara County, Romania.

The notice of filing was published in the MESAGERUL HUNEDOREAN as required under the legislation and will also be published again on April 8th, 2021.

Scott Moore, Euro Sun’s CEO states,

“We are pleased to initiate the SEA process with the Hunedoara County environmental protection agency. Our definitive feasibility study has outlined a generational asset that brings both the highest environmental stewardship with significant economic benefits directly to our local communities and to the County of Hunedoara as a whole. We look forward to building a stronger relationship with all of the authorities through this phase of the permit process.”

The SEA process includes seventeen new or updated environmental studies on the project as required by Romanian or European regulations. These studies include such items as Air Quality, Noise, Traffic and various flora and fauna baseline studies.

The SEA process will also involve obtaining the opinions or approvals of fourteen administrative bodies. Representative agencies include the Army General Headquarters, Hunedoara County Police Inspectorate, Banat Electrical Supply Company, local and county roads administrators amongst others.

Public consultations are required under the SEA process and the company intends to hold such as directed by the EPA of Hunedoara county in a timely manner but expected to occur in Q3.

Euro Sun is a publicly-traded mining company focused on the exploration and development of its 100%-owned Rovina Valley gold and copper project located in west-central Romania.
