Could Trump’s deregulation quest speed permitting in Canada too?
Rolling back environmental regulations and speeding up permitting for oil and gas as well as mining projects could put pressure on Canada to do the same.
Sayona Mining touted its Authier lithium project in Canada after receiving a positive definitive feasibility study released Monday.
Australian-based Sayona Mining says if the project becomes a mine, it could create 150 construction jobs and 160 positions for operators.
Other highlights of the DFS were the following:
The Authier project is 45 kilometres southeast of Val d’Or.
To drive the project forward, the company hired a new vice president of corporate affairs, Alexis Segal. Segal previously worked at Rio Tinto in largely the same role. Sayona announced Segal’s hiring yesterday.
