Approvals update
The Directors of Sirius Minerals Plc (AIM: SXX, OTCQX: SRUXY)
("Sirius" or the "Company") provide a procedural update on the
approvals process for the York Potash Project ("the Project").
The Company has been notified by the relevant local authorities
that Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government has
chosen not to 'call-in' the Project planning applications. As a
result, there will be no need for a public inquiry into the
applications.
The local planning authorities can proceed with finalising the
remaining issues (as detailed in the announcement of 10 July 2015)
and therefore have no other barrier to issuing the decisions
notices, following previous positive resolutions to grant by each
authority.
The decisions are for the mine and mineral transport system
applications to both the North York Moors National Park Authority
and Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council ("RCBC"), for the
materials handling facility from RCBC, and for the temporary
construction accommodation and a park and ride facility from
Scarborough Borough Council.
Chris Fraser, Managing Director and CEO of Sirius, comments:
"This is yet another positive step forward on our pathway to
developing the Project and increasing shareholder value."
