Eurobattery Minerals AB and Börse Stuttgart: EBM announces that it has submitted the necessary document to the Energy & Mining Service of La Coruña, Spain, to complete the Environmental Impact Statement and the Operating Permit for its Spanish battery mineral project Corcel. Completion of the Environmental Impact Statement and the Operating Permit is fundamental for the start of mining operations in Corcel. In order to obtain these permits, Eurobattery Minerals has now submitted the Exploitation Project (1), the Environmental Impact Study (2), and the Restoration Plan (3) to the local authorities.  The Exploitation Project (1) justifies that the Ni-Co-Cu resources within the Corcel project allow for developing a technically and economically viable mining project.

The Environmental Impact Study (2) analyses the current state of the area where the project will be developed and identifies the possible impacts of the mining project's implementation on the environment. Based on the Environmental Study, the proposed Restoration Plan (3) will be designed for the area's environmental and landscape integration and ecological improvement. The Restoration Plan justifies that the development of the Corcel mining project adds value to a resource declared as strategic by the European Union due to its scarcity and increased demand in recent years.

Furthermore, the development of the Corcel mine is contributing to the "ecological transition" and decarbonisation. It allows the development of an economic activity that generates wealth and employment and positively impacts the area where the project will be implemented.
