Strategic Project Execution Plan Implemented for the Great Atlantic Salt Development
08 Janeiro 2024 - 12:58PM
Atlas Salt (the “Company” or “Atlas”
– TSXV: SALT; OTCQB: REMRF) is pleased to announce that,
following the recent completion of its robust Feasibility Study and
recruitment of the core execution team, Atlas is focusing on
implementing its project execution plan.
The Path Forward: Key Strategies
for De-Risking Mine Project Execution
The project execution plan will mitigate the
risks associated with key elements of the capital construction
project, including those which are schedule and cost sensitive as
follows:
- Completing the Environmental
Assessment (EA) Project Registration.
- Securing all necessary permits for
onsite construction.
- Further refining the Feasibility
Study (FS) Budget and Schedule to establish a Level III baseline
schedule and budget for project execution.
- Assessing and managing hydrological
and geotechnical risks with the Main Decline Development.
- Conducting trade-off studies and
optimizing risk mitigation strategies for Battery Electric Vehicles
and the Oreflow System.
- Selecting equipment and
optimization of mine design for enhanced efficiency and
throughput.
- Advancing electrical design prior
to detailed engineering to secure long-lead electrical
equipment.
- Securing Memorandums of
Understanding (MOUs) for key underground equipment and mining
contractor partnerships.
Third-Party Review: A Closer
Look at Project Feasibility
BWB Consulting Services Inc. conducted a peer
review of Atlas’ Feasibility Study (FS) as prepared by SLR
Consulting. It underscores the meticulous planning and strategic
foresight embedded in the Great Atlantic Salt Project. The review
affirms that the project’s feasibility study “[Ranks] quite
high, especially among the peer group in the junior mining
sector” adding that key sections are “extremely
advanced and mature for a junior mining company”
reflecting the project’s straightforward scope and limited risks.
Key concerns like Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and
environmental permitting, labor costs, and site footprint
challenges are acknowledged.
The peer review highlighted opportunities for
expansion and efficiency improvements, including the potential for
expanding reserves, “The reserves base is likely to be much
larger over the long term – this is a tremendous
opportunity”. It further suggests contemplating the use of
underground continuous processes from miners to crushers and
adopting an Integrated Project Delivery model. The review commends
the project's conventional operations plan and healthy market and
operating margins, reinforcing the project's robust economic
framework.
Brian Buss, President of BWB Consulting Services
Inc. commented "The Great Atlantic Salt Project aims to develop a
world class salt deposit using low cost, low risk, and proven
technologies. Building on the FS work completed previously, the
experienced management team have developed a well thought out and
mature Front End Engineering and Design (FEED) process and Project
Execution Plan that will allow for significant derisking of the
project before, during, and after the construction phase. This will
provide a clear path towards a seamless transition into the
production and operations phase."
