en.Wedoany.com Reported - Chile's Environmental Assessment Agency (SEA) has issued a favorable evaluation for the Environmental Impact Statement (DIA) for the "New Route for Iron Ore Concentrate Transport and Loading at the Mariposa Mine" submitted by Admiralty Minerals Chile PTI LTD Agencia en Chile.

The project has a total investment of $1.5 million. The environmental document states that the Mariposa mining project, operated by Admiralty Minerals Chile PTI LTD Agencia en Chile, was approved under Exempt Resolution No. 20/2018 of the Atacama Regional Evaluation Commission. It plans to extract iron ore from deposits on the Atacama Fault near Vallenar, process it at a magnetic separation plant, and then transport the concentrate to the port of Punta Totoralillo in Caldera for export. The main purpose of this submission to SEIA is to include the ports of Las Losas and Guacolda II in Huasco, along with their associated routes, as alternative options for iron ore concentrate loading and transport.

The new transport route aims to ensure the technical, economic, and operational feasibility of the mining operations while maintaining the commitments already made under RCA Resolution No. 20/2018. The project plans to provide a sustainable and efficient transport option over its approved 18-year operational period.
