In a statement issued Tuesday,
Gabriel said that the parliamentary commission tasked with reviewing
the project did not reject the plans. Rather, the commission found that
existing mining laws are not broad enough to make decisions on gold and
silver mines.
Quoting the commission's report, Gabriel highlighted the finding that
"existing mining law is not sufficient to legislate for the scale and
complexity of the Project."
The commission proposed the rejection the draft law which would have
enabled the mine, and instead recommended the creation of a "new legal
framework applicable to gold and silver mining projects."
Gabriel says that it "welcomes any initiative that accelerates the
development of an enhanced mining law" and legislation that would allow
for a "strong mining industry in Romania."
