VANCOUVER, BC, Jan. 24,
2023 /CNW/ - Vortex Metals Inc. (TSXV: VMS) (FSE:
DM8) ("Vortex" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an
update on stakeholder engagement activities as well as
environmental, social and governance (ESG) policies moving forward.
It is the Company's strong belief that sound social and
environmental governance is the pillar of any successful mineral
exploration project.
Since April 2022, Vortex has been
focusing on identifying, engaging, and informing community
stakeholders of its projects in Southern
Mexico. As a result, more than one hundred key landowners
and land users (in seven communities and their authorities) have
been identified and educated on the mineral exploration activities,
risks, and benefits.
The Company's proposal is based on the following key
features:
- Protecting the environment, conducting exploration work in
areas previously impacted by human activity.
- Projects of social benefit for local communities in education,
health, and environment.
- Employing and training local community residents for field
exploration activities.
- Inviting community representatives to routinely visit
worksites.
- Consulting with local communities as every major milestone of
exploration is crossed.
Vortex has been carrying out forums to disclose the mineral
exploration project and its implications. All forums conducted have
been successful and well received; more stakeholders agree with the
project as they hear and discuss the Company's presentation and
proposal.
We expect the stakeholders' support to continue growing as the
engagement process advances, and the general assembly confirms and
seals the agreements.
Chief Executive Officer Vikas
Ranjan commented, "We are very proud of our stakeholder
engagement program and are confident that it will lead to a strong
social license benefitting the Company for years to come, as it
advances the exploration and potential discovery of an entirely new
Copper Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) belt in the state of
Oaxaca, Mexico."
