A breakthrough in the Silesia mine case. Bumech with an official mining license

The Ministry of Climate and Environment transferred the concession for mining hard coal from the Silesia deposit from PG Silesia to the Bumech company – said Marek Pogorzelski, spokesman for the Ministry of Climate, on the X platform on Tuesday.

The spokesman added that the decision to transfer the license is “a key step for the operational stabilization of the mine.”

“Apart from the change of the entity, the terms of the concession remain unchanged,” said the representative of the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage.

The Bumech company, which, as the owner of the company operating the Silesia mine, signed a three-year lease agreement for part of this mine, at the end of January submitted an application to the Ministry of Climate to transfer the mining license to it.

Bumech's lease of an organized part of the PG Silesia company, one of the conditions of which is obtaining a concession, is to open the way to the implementation of the agreement on the protection of Silesia's employees, concluded in Katowice at the end of December last year after a week-long underground protest.
