Indonesia: GEM says mining project permit not revoked after fatal landslide
"China's GEM says no permit revocation at Indonesia nickel JV after landslide", 17 Mar 2026, Reuters
China's GEM said the environmental permit for its nickel and cobalt joint venture project in Indonesia's central Sulawesi had not been revoked, after a fatal landslide last month prompted the local government to say it was considering the move.
Rectification work required by the authorities had been completed, GEM said on Monday [...].
Indonesia's environment minister said late last month that officials were weighing revoking QMB's environmental permit after a contractor was killed in a landslide.
QMB is a joint venture led by GEM. Other shareholders include China's stainless steel and nickel giant Tsingshan Group.
