Southern Cross Gold Consolidated (ASX:SX2) said Resources Victoria accepted as complete on Tuesday a mining license application lodged by its unit, Clonbinane Goldfield, over Southern Cross-owned 30.7-hectare land at the Sunday Creek gold-antimony project in Victoria, according to a Wednesday Australian bourse filing.
The application will now be publicly advertised for a minimum of 21 days, and a decision on the application is due within 120 days of acceptance, the company said. The grant of a mining license does not define the license area and the license holder and is the first of several approvals that would be required, it added.
