Final Public Comment Period Begins For Permitting Mojave Project

VANCOUVER - K2 Gold Corporation announced that the United States Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has released the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for K2's Mojave Exploration Drilling Project in Inyo County, CA. The BLM has also published a Notice of Availability in the Federal Register, opening the final 45-day comment period on the project.

"It is an exciting time for K2, as we pass this milestone and approach the end of the permitting process," said Anthony Margarit, CEO. "The publication of the DEIS reflects years of diligent environmental studies, community engagement, and collaboration with regulatory agencies. It represents a major step forward in advancing and de-risking the Mojave Project in the most responsible and sustainable manner possible."

The public comment period will be open for 45 days, during which interested members of the public are encouraged to review the DEIS and provide feedback. The document can be accessed via the BLM's ePlanning website or directly through the BLM National NEPA Register.

A final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) will be prepared following the close of the public comment period, incorporating relevant feedback, followed by the Record of Decision (the final decision of permit grant).
