[{"type":"text","content":"\n \nRNS Number : 0755B Bluejay Mining PLC 28 January 2020 \n\nBluejay Mining plc / EPIC: JAY / Market: AIM / Sector: Mining\n28 January 2020\nBluejay Mining plc ('Bluejay' or the 'Company')\nDundas Project Licencing Update and Dundas A/S Board Appointment\n \nBluejay Mining plc, the AIM and FSE listed company with projects in Greenland and Finland, is pleased to provide an update on its exploitation licence (the 'Exploitation Licence') application for the Dundas Ilmenite Project ('Dundas' or the 'Project') and announce the appointment of Per Buhl Olsen to the Board of Directors of Dundas Titanium A/S.\n \nDundas Project Licence Update\nBluejay remains focussed on securing the requisite Exploitation Licence for the Dundas Ilmenite Project, which was submitted to the Mineral Licence and Safety Authority (\"MLSA\") on 17 September 2019 and included the Environmental and Social Impact Assessments (\"EIA\" and \"SIA\"). The lodgement of these documents represented the conclusion of more than three years of extensive field assessments, measurements and documentation, which Bluejay was supported in producing by its various specialist advisers who worked to ensure all relevant modules were prepared in compliance with the application requirements and standards as set out in the approved terms of reference and with respect to licencing requirements.\n \nFollowing rounds of minor amendments and edits, Bluejay has received several assurances of timely documentation processing and turn-around from the relevant Greenland ministries. Nonetheless, Bluejay is still waiting for final approval on the EIA from the Energy and Environmental Agency for Mineral Resources Activities (\"EAMRA\") under the Ministry of Nature, Environment and Research, Government of Greenland, and the advisors to EAMRA, the Danish Centre For Environment And Energy, Aarhus University, and Department of Environment and Minerals, Greenland Institute of Natural Resources. Whilst this slow assessment is frustrating, the Company is confident it is nearing conclusion having been informed that a response can be expected in the first week of February. The SIA is also in its final round following a review and amendment process with the Ministry of Mineral Resources, Government of Greenland, who now are now assessing the application.\n&nb...
