To date, Tirex has spent a total of approximately $25 million on the companys Mirdita VMS Project.
Tirex has now applied to transition the six specific areas into production based on successful work that variously consisted of drilling, database compilation, airborne geophysics, ground geophysics, geochemistry and geological mapping.
Tirex has submitted comprehensive documentation with respect to the environment and the community to the Ministry of Environment and Forestry and mining plans to the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Energy.
Tirexs applications have received official support from all the host communities where the mining permit applications are located.
Tirexs mining plans, as presented to the government, would create substantial long term employment, infrastructure growth and community benefits in an area of Albania in need of investment and economic activity.
During exploration in these areas, Tirex established a strong local presence that has resulted in a level of employment and economic activity that is expected to grow further during prospective mining operations.
