Written by Customer Service on . Posted in Public Companies.

TORONTO, July 16, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Amarillo Gold Corporation (Amarillo or the Company) (TSXV: AGC, OTCQB: AGCBF) has achieved another major milestone on its project development schedule for its flagship Posse Gold Project in Goiás State, Brazil. The Company has received a Water Use Permit for its proposed mine from the country’s National Water Agency. Receiving this permit is a precondition to receiving the License to Install, expected in the third quarter of 2020.
“This is the next step on our path to construction,” said Mike Mutchler, Amarillo’s Chief Executive Officer. “We are working with Auramet International on construction financing and are on track to starting detailed engineering and execution planning in the third quarter. We are also targeting procurement for long lead items to start in the fourth quarter of this year.”Brazil has a clear mining regime that includes a transparent, three-stage permitting process:1 – Preliminary License – this is the most important part of the process, and requires environmental baseline studies, community engagement, and public hearings. Amarillo received this license in May 2016.2 – License to Install – this license authorizes the Company to build and commission the mine. Amarillo submitted its application for the License to Install in December 2019 and expects to receive it in the third quarter of 2020.3 – Operating License – this license is submitted once a mine has been commissioned and requires an inspection of the mine and plant to ensure compliance with codes and provisions of previous licenses. Amarillo expects to submit that in the third quarter of 2022.About Amarillo
