Business Wire
(LVCA:OTCBB) Lake Victoria Mining Company Inc. is pleased to
announce that on January 7th, 2014 Mr. Ahmed Magoma, on behalf of
the Company, officially received the Environmental Impact
Assessment (EIA) Certificate of approval from the National
Environment Management Council (NEMC) of Tanzania, for Lake
Victoria’s planned Kunanga Medium Scale Gold Mine that is within
the Company’s Kinyambwiga Gold project, in northern Tanzania.
The Environmental and Social Impact Assessment Final Report,
prepared for the Company by a Tanzanian environmental consulting
firm, was submitted to NEMC on the 2nd of August 2013 (Refer Press
Release: 5 August 2013). The EIA certificate of approval,
registration number 2247 EC/EIS/1106 is issued under the
Environmental Management Act No.20 of 2004, and was signed by the
Tanzanian Minister of Environment on the 23rd December 2013. The
EIA Certificate is valid during the entire life cycle of the
project based on the Company’s compliance with the General and
Specific Conditions of its issuance.
The Company is currently completing the Mining Application that
is expected to be submitted to the Tanzania Ministry of Energy and
Minerals very shortly. The Mining application will not only cover
the Kunanga site, but will also encompass 39 Primary Mining
Licenses (PMLs) currently held by the Company’s Tanzanian
subsidiary. The area, totaling 3.44 square kilometers also includes
two other known gold occurrences at Kunanga 2 and 3.
David Kalenuik, President and CEO of Lake Victory says “We are
extremely excited with receiving approval from NEMC allowing us to
proceed to the next step of applying for our Mining License. This
will be the final step of Government approval that, once granted,
will allow us to move the Kinyambwiga Gold Project forward into an
active open pit mining project. We have assembled key personnel for
a team to construct and operate the mine, and have identified our
needs for equipment and supplies. A test dig in February of 2013
confirmed our initial equipment needs. We would expect to move
quickly once the Mining License is issued. I thank everyone who has
worked throughout the years on Kinyambwiga, and especially our
technical team and talent in North America and Africa that worked
to complete this detailed and rigorous Environmental and Social
Impact Statement, along with the necessary follow up. We look
forward to breaking ground on mine construction soon after the
final license is received and to the potential of pouring our first
gold during 2014.”

including comments from some of the Company’s directors on the
significance of receiving the EIA Certificate.
