European Commission Reaches Political Agreement on the Critical Raw Materials Act
14 Noviembre 2023 - 10:15AM
Euro Sun Mining Inc., (TSX: ESM) (“
Euro
Sun” or the “
Company”) is pleased to
announce that the European Commission (the
“
Commission”) has reached a political agreement on
the Critical Raw Materials Act (the “
Act”). The
Act represents a significant milestone in ensuring the European
Union’s (“
EU’s”) access to secure, diversified,
affordable and sustainable supply of critical raw materials, and in
particular, Euro Sun is pleased to announce that copper has been
deemed both a strategic raw material and critical raw material.
The Act seeks to increase domestic EU capacities
for critical raw materials along the supply chain by identifying
strategic projects that would benefit more streamlined, faster and
more efficient permitting procedures as well as facilitated access
to finance. Furthermore, the Act specifies that the EU should have
the capacity to extract 10%, process 40%, and recycle 25% of its
annual consumption of strategic raw materials by 2030. The Act will
also require monitoring of critical raw materials supply chains,
and an obligation for large companies to perform risk assessments
of their supply chains.
The Act will now be submitted to the European
Parliament and the Council for formal approval. Commenting on the
political agreement of the Act, Mr. Grant Sboros, Chief Executive
Officer of Euro Sun, said “We welcome the passing of the Act and
applaud the EU’s recognition of the importance of increasing
domestic production of critical materials, in particular copper.
Euro Sun believes the Rovina Valley Project is a perfect candidate
for the Act given that it is situated in Romania and its sizable
copper deposits. We look forward to working with the government of
Romania to streamline the permitting and financing of the Rovina
Valley Project under the Act.”
