Aura Energy (ASX:AEE) said the US International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) published the environmental and social impact assessment for its Tiris uranium project in Mauritania, as it advances through organization's due diligence process for potential debt financing for a portion of the total project funding requirements, according to a Friday Australian bourse filing.
Aura applied for project financing with the organization and arranged a project site visit in April.
The firm is in the due diligence phase and conducting term sheet negotiations with other funding groups and potential strategic equity investors.
