El Salvador president proposes bill to overturn metals mining ban
In 2017, El Salvador became the first country in the world to ban forms of metals mining.
Eritrean National Mining Corp. has agreed to pay US$32 million for a 30 percent stake in Chalice Gold Mines’ Zara gold project, Winnipeg Free Press reported Wednesday:
Eritrean, which is based in Australia but trades on the TSX, said that the agreement will pave the way for final permitting, financing and development of Zara.
In exchange, Eritrean will receive a stake in Zara Mining, an operating company, that will own, develop and operate the Koka gold mine in Eritrea, eastern Africa, which is part of the broader project.
