19 Abril 2022 - 8:00AM
The management of
Sirios Resources Inc. (TSXV:
SOI) is pleased to announce that several components of the
Environmental Baseline Studies (EBS) for the Cheechoo gold project
have been completed, with the help of environmental consultant
Groupe Hémisphères, now a part of Groupe GÉOS.
These studies include:
- Wetlands identification and
characterization (Fall 2019)
- Avifauna characterization and
inventory (June 2021)
- Flora and terrestrial environment
characterization and inventory (August 2021)
- Aquatic components characterization
and inventory (August and September 2021)
Sirios is pleased to report that the findings of
these studies have not highlighted any environmental concerns that
could affect the development of the Cheechoo project.
Dominique Doucet, President and CEO of Sirios,
commented: “The positive completion of this set of environmental
studies on our Cheechoo gold property is great news for the
project, which can advance towards development while complying with
the highest environmental standards.”
The purpose of the EBS is to analyze and
quantify relevant environmental parameters for the area of the
potential future mine as a record of environmental conditions
before any major project activities takes place. This helps
identify and mitigate potential environmental and social impacts
associated with the development of the project. The EBS are used to
develop an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), which is an
essential part of the approval and permitting process to develop a
mine.
