Environmental Licensing and Audit: Protecting the

Large-scale natural resource extraction in Tete places companies under the constant scrutiny of the Ministry of Land and Environment (MTA) and civil society. Compliance with the Regulation on the Environmental Impact Assessment Process (Decree No. 54/2015) is the heart of the operation.

A failure in the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) can result in the immediate suspension of activities, generating million-dollar losses.

Critical Environmental Challenges:

  • Periodic Environmental Audits: Verification of compliance with emission and effluent standards.
  • Mine Water Management: Prevention of watershed contamination (such as the Zambezi).
  • Rehabilitation of Degraded Areas: Financial and technical structuring for mine closure.
  • Community Conflict Mediation: Management of complaints regarding noise or air pollution.
