Metals X (ASX:MLX) said the Bluestone Mines Tasmania Joint Venture (JV) in Tasmania, in which the company holds a 50% stake, has awarded the Renison project's concentrator front-end engineering and design contract to GR Engineering Services, according to a Friday filing with the Australian bourse.
The contract includes front-end engineering and design for the construction of a new tailings reprocessing facility at the project, along with a provision of a lump sum offer to execute the construction phase, the filing said.
It is set to be completed in the third quarter with a final investment decision by the JV later this year, the filing added.
