US Gold receives operating permit for Wyoming gold project

Thu May 09 2024

US Gold subsidiary Gold King has received a conditional surface gold mine permit from the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (WDEQ) for its CK Gold Project. The permit marks a significant milestone for the project situated in the Silver Crown mining district of south-east Wyoming.

This approval is subject to conditions, including a $5.1m reclamation performance bond before commencing construction or mining activities. The project must also secure WYPDES permits for multiple discharge points and AQD permits before any operations can begin. The CK Gold Project, previously known as Copper King, has been revitalised under the current management since August 2020.
