Bushveld Minerals Limited (AIM: BMN), a diversified mineral
development company with a portfolio of vanadium, titanium, iron
ore, tin and coal assets in Southern Africa, is pleased to announce
it has been granted an Integrated Enviromental Authorisation
("IEA") by the South African Mineral Resources Department in terms
of Section 24 L of the National Environmental Management Act (Act

The Environmental Impact Assessment was compiled as part of the
Mining Right Application ("MRA") submitted on 12 March 2015. The
next step in the MRA process is the receipt of the approval of the
Company's mine works programme and social and labour plan.
Commenting on the granting of the Integrated Environmental
Authorisation, Fortune Mojapelo said "The Mokopane Vanadium Project
remains a key part in the Company's vanadium strategy and offers
meaningful synergies with the Vametco opportunity being pursued.
The IEA is a crucial step in the approval process for a mining
right application. We welcome this important approval, the next
step will be the approval of the mine works programme and the
social and labour plan. These will pave the way for the granting of
the Mining Right."
