Armenia – Jan 7 2022

The draft permission for Lydian Armenia CJSC to use water for Amulsar gold mine operation in excess of 41.3l/s from Arpa River is currently being developed at the Water Resources Management Agency of the Ministry of Environment (MOE). As the Ministry said a statement, the draft will be discussed on January 11 at 16:00 at the Government building.  

To remind, last time the Company sought permission to draw water from the Arpa River to support long term operations in 2021, which was denied by the MOE.
