Ann: Gulf Receives Operating Licence, page-12

Yes. IMO a direct link with this license and DSO approval as suggested at the bottom of the release.

Gulf’s Managing Director, Hamish Bohannan, commented, “We are extremely pleased to receive this licence as we head into the final stages of construction of the first two smelters. Importantly, the licence allows us to commence building stockpiles in advance of commissioning in the last quarter of this year. Meanwhile, we continue to pursue a licence for the export of manganese concentrate (“DSO”).”
