The project is adjacent to the existing Trend mine. Anglo will integrate the Trend and Roman mining operations and use as much of the existing infrastructure as possible. Additional plant capacity and mining equipment will be required to achieve and sustain full production.

Further, the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations has approved a Licence of Occupation under the Land Act and a Licence to Cut Amendment under the Forest Act, both of which are required for the mine to move forward with Phase 1.
Anglo American expects the second phase of the project to be permitted by the end of the year.
