Sir Julius, firm discuss project

NEW Ireland Governor Sir Julius Chan has resumed discussions with Nautilus Minerals on the Solwara 1 seabed mining project in his provincial waters.
“Nautilus has been through some difficult times, but it looks now as if a new door is opening,” Sir Julius said.
“We consider it very important to have an ongoing dialogue with the company.
“We want to ensure that if the project goes ahead it will be done in a way that is both environmentally and socially responsible.”
Sir Julius met with executives of Nautilus where they were briefed on the company’s re-organisation and continuation of the Solwara 1 project.
