GOVIEX RECEIVES RADIOLOGICAL CERTIFICATE FOR ITS MADAOUELA PROJECT

GoviEX Uranium Inc. has received its radiological certificate for the Madaouela uranium project from the Nigerien government.

The radiological certificate is a regulatory requirement prior to starting mining operations and confirms the completion of radiological baseline studies.

The Madaouela project is anticipated to have a significant positive effect on the Nigerien economy, with a proposed initial capital expenditure of $343-million (U.S.), and is expected to generate considerable employment opportunities for the local population with the potential of creating up to 800 skilled and semi-skilled jobs over its forecast 20-year mine life. The Madaouela project is also expected to contribute substantial royalty payments and taxes to the Nigerien government, which holds a 20-per-cent stake in Comima SA, the Nigerien company set up to develop the project.
