Frieda River landowners reaffirm commitment to work collaboratively with PanAust

The seven landowning communities of the proposed Frieda River Copper-Gold Project have reaffirmed their commitment to work collaboratively with PanAust Limited at the first Community Leaders Forum for 2024.

The Community Leaders Forum is a regular pre-development meeting that provides an opportunity for Frieda River Limited to inform and consult with key stakeholders in the lead up to the final permitting of the Frieda River Project. The forum is an important part of Frieda River Limited’s engagement and consultation process.

Twenty-four representative community leaders met with Frieda River on 1-2 February 2024. The meeting provided an update to the leaders on the advancement of the permitting phase of the project and the Frieda River Hydroelectric Project. The sessions were extended to openly discuss and resolve community concerns and answer questions on the technical and engineering aspects of this project of national significance.

The meeting concluded with a review of the Frieda River Accord. Signed in 2018, the Frieda River Accord calls for a PanAust and community shared vision and values of working cooperatively and resolving any differences of opinion and expectations while mutually advancing the Frieda River Project.
