PPX Mining Advances Permit Process for Igor Plant

PPX Mining Corp. has initiated the regulatory permitting process to commence operations at its Igor processing plant in La Libertad, Peru. This step follows significant progress in constructing the 350-tonne-per-day facility, marking a transition from construction to potential commissioning and operations. PPX has requested inspections of completed plant components by regional authorities and applied for a necessary water use license. The plant's design emphasizes water recycling, minimizing fresh water intake.

On October 19, 2026, a formal inspection request was submitted to the Regional Management of Energy, Mines, and Hydrocarbons of La Libertad, covering major plant components such as flotation facilities and water storage tanks. Parallelly, PPX has engaged with water authorities for a use license, underscoring their commitment to sustainable operations.

The company is focused on obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals to establish an integrated mining and processing operation at the Igor Project, which aims to enhance operational flexibility and value capture from mineral production. Updates on the permitting progress will be provided as they arise.
