Mawson Finland Limited Announces Significant Progress in Permitting Process for the Rajapalot Gold-Cobalt Project, Finland
Ms. Noora Ahola, Mawson Finland CEO, states: "We are very happy to announce that we have advanced in our Environmental Impact Assessment procedure, and have now selected a suitable consultant after a rigorous selection process. Ramboll is a highly respected and very experienced international consultancy office with a wide global network of experts, including experience in developing EIAs and related studies with Finnish mining operators. We are all very pleased to start working together and further develop the Rajapalot asset on its path to production. We would like to thank our shareholders, local stakeholders and communities for all the support and encouragement to continue developing and de-risking the Rajapalot project."

EIA - Environmental Impact Assessment Procedure
In Finland and the European Union, regulatory environmental planning processes form the foundation for a structured permitting path required for sustainable mine development. The EIA procedure lays the groundwork for moving the Rajapalot project through all future mine permitting requirements (i.e., industrial zoning, extraction and operational permits etc). Throughout this procedure the Rajapalot project and future mine permitting can be further de-risked while the company continues the on-going resource expansion work.
This EIA procedure ensures not only the project's environmental responsibility but also facilitates meaningful stakeholder engagement in the development process. The EIA procedure includes two major phases: the Program phase (ie., "first phase") and the Report phase (ie., "second phase"). The "first phase", or the EIA Program, was finalized in late 2024 (see MFL news release dated December 10, 2024). This "second phase" or the EIA Report, will document and address any significant environmental impacts from mine development and continued operations. As such, Mawson has now achieved a significant milestone in this development journey by initiating the final "second phase" of the EIA procedure.
It is important to note that while this EIA procedure is not a permit, it provides the vital and underlying foundations on which any further mine permitting processes will require. It provides both the environmental baselines of the area, and any possible effects of the project which will be continuously referred to by the governing authorities during subsequent mine permitting. The EIA Report can be finalized after the Pre-Feasibility has been completed.
This same EIA procedure has been or is being presently undertaken by all the other mineral development projects in Finland, including the Ikkari project of Rupert Resources, Suhanko ("Arctic Platinum") project of CD Capital Natural Resources Fund III L.P., the Sokli project of The Finnish Minerals Group, and the Sakatti project of Anglo American.

Ramboll's recent assignments include for example acting as GISTM Designer of Record for Boliden Kylylahti mine and leading the EIA for Yara Suomi's Siilinjärvi mine expansion. Ramboll has also delivered zoning and impact assessments for Anglo American Sakatti Mining, an IFC-compliant ESIA for Sydvaranger AS in Norway, and environmental permitting and risk assessments for Terrafame mine. Ramboll have provided land-use and permitting services also for Agnico Eagle's Kittilä gold Mine.

4 Steps to Budget When Living on Your Own in Lafayette, LA
NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / July 26, 2025 / Living on your own in Lafayette, LA, is a big step - and an exciting one. You get to make your own choices, create your own space and enjoy your independence. But living on your own also means being in charge of your own money, which may be overwhelming at first. Don't worry, you're not alone. Many people in Lafayette are learning how to manage their budgets and take control of their finances for the first time, just like you. And while it may seem challenging some days, the good news is that you could build smart money habits one step at a time. Whether you're paying rent, buying groceries or handling surprise costs, tools like budgeting, saving or looking into loans in Lafayette, LA, could help you stay on track. Keep reading for a few ways to care for your finances while living on your own. 1. Know what's coming in and going out The first step to creating a budget is understanding your income and expenses. Income is how much money you earn each month and expenses are how much you spend. Start by writing down your monthly income. If you get a regular paycheck, list how much money you earn after taxes. If you work different hours each week or have more than one job, try to estimate an average income based on what you've earned in the past few months. Next, write down your regular monthly expenses. These might include: Also, think about any bills that come up less often, like car insurance, which you may pay every six months or annually. Break those less frequent payments into monthly amounts so you don't forget to plan for them. Once you compare the money coming in and going out, you could see if you're spending more than you make or if you have funds left over to save. 2. Choose a budgeting method Choosing a budgeting method that fits your lifestyle may make managing money much easier. Consider the following well-known strategies: 3. Prepare for the unexpected Even if you have a solid plan, life doesn't always go the way you expect. Your car might break down, your pet might need to see a vet or you could lose hours at work. To deal with any unforeseen expenses, it's smart to set up an emergency fund. An emergency fund is money you set aside specifically for unexpected costs. Start small - even saving $20 a week can add up over time. If you don't have enough money saved and something urgent comes up, you might consider a personal loan to help cover car repairs, medical bills or other important expenses. A personal loan is a lump sum of money you borrow from a bank, credit union or other lender. You pay back the loan in fixed monthly installments over a pre-determined amount of time along with interest, which is the cost of borrowing money. Make sure you understand the terms of a loan before you borrow. Look at the interest rate, monthly payment amounts and the time it will take to repay. 4. Make saving a regular habit Saving money doesn't have to be hard. If you treat savings like a regular bill, it might become part of your routine. One simple method is setting up automatic transfers from your checking account to a savings account. Automatic transfers ensure that part of your paycheck gets saved without you even thinking about it. You could also make saving into a game. Set a goal to save $5 every time you skip a coffee or pack lunch instead of going out. Over time, you'll see how small choices could lead to big savings. Build your independence with smart money habits Living on your own comes with new responsibilities, but it also brings freedom and the opportunity to make your own financial choices. When you learn how to budget, save and prepare for the unexpected, you're giving yourself the tools to stay in control of your money - and your future.
