The most important thing initially for mining approval is that the deposit is located on a granted mining lease which BOD-Lena are (mining lease M21/106).

I've done some checking and some overlaying on GoogleEarth (the accuracy is not completely reliable but close enough) and I've found that the BOD-Lena lines of mineralisation sit very close to the eastern boundary of the mining lease. The upwardly vertically projected lines of mineralisation are within the lease boundary but the southern ends of the Velvet and Twilight lines are close to the boundary and appear to be converging on it to the south. Depending on the mining method the proximity to this eastern boundary may represent a problem. Should any proposed open pit design cross this boundary a new mining lease application would need to be made and they generally come with delays. They might be able to squeeze a small pit in but it could be a problem for the planners if the boundary is in fact too close and they opt to mine BOD-Lena initially using open cut methods. We would need to see how much oxide ore is available at BOD, judging by what I've seen the oxide tonnage at BOD won't be large. Esh
