Dual-listed Orion Minerals has been granted a mining right for its flagship Prieska copper/zinc project, in South Africa, and has struck a collaboration agreement with underground miner Byrnecut Offshore for the underground mine development and production at Prieska.
Orion on Tuesday told shareholders that the grant of the mining right represented a major step towards the development of the Prieska project, and cleared the way for construction to start.
