About the supposed “strategic project” status of the Salave mine reported in the media:What was published in the official bulletin (BOPA) would not necessarily mean that the project has already been declared a Regional Interest Project (PIER) as some headlines suggest. In fact, it seems to be fulfilling a required step: requesting information from the local council because the project is currently incompatible with Tapia’s PGOU urban plan. This would be a mandatory step before any formal declaration of strategic status, according to the law.That said, the initiation of this procedure could be interpreted as a strong signal that the regional government intends to approve the project. If that were not the case, it’s unlikely this process would be initiated, since it implies political exposure and potential opposition. Taking this step might indicate that the project is still moving forward with a high probability of eventual approval.
