GoldQuest Mining CEO Luis Santana joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a major regulatory milestone for the company’s flagship Romero gold-copper-silver project in the Dominican Republic. The company has officially received the Terms of Reference from the country’s Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources, marking the launch of the final phase of the Environmental Impact Assessment required to obtain an environmental license for mine development. This important step allows GoldQuest to formally begin a comprehensive environmental study for Romero, a proposed underground mine located in San Juan Province. The issuance of the ToR also confirms the project’s Category A classification under Dominican environmental regulations, which applies to projects with significant potential impacts and requires rigorous analysis and community engagement. Santana emphasized that receiving the ToR is both a validation of the project’s quality and a signal of the Dominican government’s commitment to responsible mining development. To carry out the EIA, GoldQuest has engaged AECOM, a globally recognized environmental consulting firm known for its expertise in complex mining and infrastructure projects. AECOM will lead the EIA process, ensuring it meets both international best practices and local regulatory requirements. The Romero Project is designed to produce a copper concentrate containing gold and silver, utilizing conventional processing methods and incorporating state-of-the-art mining and processing technology. The project aims to deliver strong operational efficiency, environmental stewardship, and safety performance, In parallel, the company will continue drilling and evaluation work in Romero and nearby prospects to demonstrate the broader potential of the region. #proactiveinvestors #tsxv #gqc #mining #DominicanRepublicMining #RomeroProject #LuisSantana #CopperMining #GoldExploration #MiningUpdates #EnvironmentalImpactStudy #JuniorMining #ResourceDevelopment
