Ann: Submission of Key Permitting Documents, Penikat Project, page-23

Exploration may commence Dec 2024, but appeals may take additional 2 years.
Appeals may actually take 2-3 years and if there is a great controversy maybe 3-4 years.

may be able to commence December 2024, noting that delays related to public appeals and

If they make mistake with the impacts and court returns the permit to the authorities, then it would start the cycle from the beginning, possibly a little faster.

Note that they advertise underground mining which may affect the surface resouces.

Dec 2023 with permits is out of question.
