Bushveld Vanadium Project Update - Submission of Mining Right Application

Bushveld Minerals (AIM: BMN), a diversified mineral development company with projects in Africa, advises that an application for a Mining Right in terms of section 22 of the Mineral & Petroleum Resources Development Act, 2002 ("the MPRDA") was submitted and accepted by the Department of Mineral Resources ("the DMR") on Friday 12 March 2015. While the Mining Right Application is primarily focused on the Bushveld Vanadium Project, it also covers a range of minerals including titanium and iron ore (subjects of the PQ Iron Ore and Titanium project), phosphate (subject of Bushveld's phosphate deposit), platinum group metals and other minerals.

Fortune Mojapelo, the CEO of Bushveld said, "We are delighted to reach this important milestone for the Bushveld Vanadium Project. Efforts now turn to ensuring that the Mining Right Application is processed expeditiously. Meanwhile, the feasibility study on the vanadium project continues apace and the Company looks forward to providing updates as it progresses."
