NSW approves modifications for Clean TeQ’s Sunrise

The Independent Planning Commission of New South Wales, Australia, has given ASX- and TSX-listed Clean TeQ the green light to implement a number of improvements at the cobalt/nickel project, which will allow it to more effectively respond to the rapidly growing demand for the metals that it will produce.

The Modification 4 approval covers amendments to the processing plant design and layout, mine plan and general logistics, diversification of water supply through approval to access surface water from the Lachlan river, as well as consent to produce up to 100 000 t/y of ammonium sulphate for sale as a byproduct.
