Centaurus resumes Salobo West licensing process

ASX-listed Centaurus Metals will resume the environmental licencing process for its maiden drilling programme at the Salobo West copper/gold project, in Brazil, after an earlier decision to deny the company a drilling and clearing licence was overturned.

The key environmental agency responsible for the approvals, ICMBio, has reportedly reconsidered its preliminary findings handed own in May, and has now given the go-ahead for the licencing process to resume.
