VHM advances plans for a mineral sands/rare earths mine in Victoria's Cannie Ridge area; awaits government approval after a public inquiry.

Mining company VHM advances plans for mineral sands/rare earths mine in Victoria's Cannie Ridge area, announcing a partnership agreement with an earthmoving firm. The Victorian government has not yet approved the project, following a six-week public inquiry into the Environmental Effects Statement. A three-member independent planning panel will submit recommendations to the state's Planning Minister within 40 days, potentially allowing VHM to apply for permits and a mining license, enabling its final investment decision.
