Looks like JRV has applied for Kabanga, page-12

sounds like JRV has some novel plans

obviously they won't build a smelter/refinery and it sounds like they can't export the ordinary 19% concentrates this project originally was hoping to produce

At Friday’s parliamentary session, Mining Minister Angellah Kairuki said the government’s ban on exports of gold and copper concentrates would remain in force until mineral smelters were built in the East African nation.

The Jervois team has studied the new laws and regulations in Tanzania’s mining sector and believes they form the basis for a highly successful project, the scope of which includes processing of concentrate in-country to take advantage of rising demand for raw materials in lithium ion battery cathodes.

Jervois looks forward to working with the Government of Tanzania to establish a viable pathway to develop Kabanga. The Company will operate in full compliance with Tanzanian law, including the requirement to beneficiate concentrate from Kabanga in-country. The Company is aware of the importance of constructing and operating Kabanga in a manner that will maximise the returns to Tanzania, and believes there is excellent potential for a fruitful partnership between Jervois and Tanzanian authorities at all levels and with the local communities. Jervois sees Kabanga as a new kind of mining and processing operation in Tanzania, with significant Tanzanian participation in partnership with the company.
