Horizonte Minerals Plc (LON:HZM) chief hails environmental licence as a “major milestone” ProactiveInvestors Stocktube

Published on 8 Jun 2016
Jeremy Martin, chief executive of Horizonte Minerals Plc, (LON:HZM, TSX:HZM) says the preliminary environmental licence it has been granted for a mine and beneficiation plant at Araguaia in Brazil is “a major milestone for us”.

He tells Proactive Investors that the licence “is probably the hardest milestone to get” adding “it’s basically the first stage gate in terms of walking towards production”.

The junior miner said the award underscored the viability of its project at Araguaia and the state government’s support for the development.

“We are currently operating in a very low nickel price environment and the key that everybody wants to see is ‘can you operate and make money at this kind of price range’ and our aim is to show that this project can,” Martin says.

#Finland - The Thief Next Door: Russia's rich history of annexing neighbouring countries: UKRAINE TODAY

Published on 7 Jun 2016
Finland... the thought of Vladimir Putin doesn't quite come to mind at the first mention of it. But, a small Finnish autonomy, the Aland islands is living under the vast shadow of the Kremlin.

The trip begins at a central bus station. Although it may sound warm and exotic the actual climate here is damp and cold. Aland - nearly seven thousand rocky islands, a region that encompasses an archipelago at the entrance of the Gulf of Bothnia in the Baltic Sea. Just like Ukraine's Crimea, Aland is an autonomous region and although nowadays it is the only Swedish-speaking region in Finland... Aland islands were under the rule of the Russian Empire. And seemingly, Russia's interest in the Finnish autonomy has not faded yet.

So what's it like for the Finns to live right beside a neighbour that stole a part of their land? From a Ukrainian standpoint that sounds way-too-familiar.

The Kremlin grip on the neighbouring ex-Soviet states is evident, but it's not that easy to spot in Finland, at least not with a naked eye.

The phenomena of cross-border shopping. It is a part of the Finland/Russia frontier too. The Russian language can be heard everywhere here. Special buses bring shoppers here several times a day.
