Trevali Receives Key Environmental Impact Permit for Its Santander Mine in Peru 

 

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Apr 24, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Trevali Mining Corporation ("Trevali" or the "Company") CA:TV +3.36% (otcqx:TREVF)(lma:TV)(frankfurt:4TI) is pleased to announce it has received Directorial Resolution No: 122-2012-MEM/AAM from the General Bureau of Environmental Affairs (DGAA) of the Ministry of Energy and Mines of Peru (Ministerio de Energia Y Minas - MEM) approving its Environmental Impact Study (EIA) for the Operations Phase of the Santander Zinc-Lead-Silver Mine Project in west-central Peru. 

As part of the extensive review process the Company held numerous information workshops with our neighbours in the local communities, within the area of influence of Santander, in addition to addressing observations from MEM, the National and Local Water Authorities, the National Archaeological Institute and the Ministry of Agriculture. 

Receipt of these permits allows the Company mining contractors JRC Ingenierios to commence underground development of the Magistral deposits. JRC personnel have been on-site for approximately two weeks and the full complement of 200 miners are presently mobilizing to site.

The latest report from Trevali's concentrate plant construction managers, Merit International, states that the project remains on track for Q3-2012 commissioning. 

"Receipt of the environmental approval is the culmination of many months of hard work by our Santander team and represents a major milestone in the Company's development," stated Dr. Mark Cruise, Trevali's President and CEO. "We are also pleased with the progress on site that remains on-track for commissioning and production ramp-up this year."
