Item 8.01 Other Events
Rise Gold Corp. reported the public comment period for the Draft Environmental Impact Report on the Idaho-Maryland Mine Project is complete.
The Nevada County government released the Draft Environmental Impact Report (the "DEIR") for the Idaho-Maryland Mine Project (the "IMM Project") on January 4, 2022. The report's release was a major milestone toward the approval of the Company's Use Permit Application to reopen the historic past-producing Idaho-Maryland Gold Mine. The 60-day public comment on the DEIR was extended to 91 days, ending on April 4, 2022. Over 1,000 local residents provided comments to the county in support of the IMM Project. The Company will provide more information on the public comments received by the county as the information becomes available.
The timeline to complete the Use Permit Application process is largely dependant on the Nevada County government and the completion of the FEIR. The Company estimates that the Use Permit for the IMM Project could be granted by late summer or fall of 2022.
