The mining licence runs for a period of 16 years until January, 2026.\n\nGriffin's Chairman, Mladen Ninkov, commented: \"Although a long time in the coming, the issue of the new mining licence at Caijiaying is very welcome as it allows the mining of Caijiaying to be guaranteed for the currently known mine life at zone III at a production level optimized by the Company. This is extraordinarily good news for all the shareholders of the Company. I congratulate all the Chinese and ex-pat staff who made this milestone possible.\"\n\nFurther information\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGriffin Mining Limited\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nMladen Ninkov – Chairman\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\nTelephone: +44(0)20 7629 7772\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nRoger Goodwin – Finance Director\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nInvestec Investment Banking:\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nStephen Cooper\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\nTelephone: +44 (0)20 7597 5104\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n \n \nGriffin Mining Limited's shares are quoted on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) of the London Stock Exchange (symbol GFM).
