Secil to commission Outão cement plant's new line in mid-2023

02 March 2023

Portugal: Secil says that it will commission its Outão cement plant's new line, called a Clean Cement Line, in mid-2023. The line will produce Portland limestone cement (PLC).

Jornal de Negócios News has reported that this will increase the producer's consumption of limestone, for which its already partly relies on imports. Secil has submitted an application to expand its limestone mines, entitled New Quarry Plan, to the Portuguese Environment Agency. Under the plan, Secil will connect it Vale de Mós A and Vale de Mós B quarries. It will thereby secure sufficient supply to become entirely reliant on mined limestone in its cement production. The plans also leave a 27 hectare 'plateau' at the site, which will be available for other uses.

Court grants Cementa four-year mining permit for Slite

14 December 2022

Sweden: The Land and Environmental Court has granted Cementa a four-year permit to continue mining operations in Slite on Gotland. The latest temporary permit was set to expire at the end of 2022. Both the Environmental Protection Agency (Naturvårdsverket) and the county administrative board of Gotland recommended rejecting Cementa’s application earlier in 2022. Prior to this the central government extended the cement company’s mining licence by one year from late 2021.

The subsidiary of Germany-based Heidelberg Materials said that it viewed the latest four-year permit as a ‘bridge’ until it is able to secure a long-term permit. It is aiming to submit an application for a 30-year permit in 2023.
