The Certej Project
VarDev is bringing new opportunities to the Certej Mining Project located in Certeju de Sus. Our vision for the Project includes:
400 New Jobs
Creating over 400 long-term jobs.
NO Cyanide
No use of cyanide.
NO Wet Tailings
No use of wet tailings.
Re-forestation
We will offset forest losses by planting 5 new trees for every tree removed.
$500 Million
We plan to invest over US$500M in project development.
Sustainability
We will remediate the environmental impacts of historic mining activity.
We will use modern processes and technology to safeguard the environment. Our plans also include exploring for critical minerals to develop a secure supply of materials such as copper and antimony for Romania and the European Union.
“In November 2025, the competition council certified VarDev’s planned investment in Romania. As we implement our investment, we will work closely with our stakeholders to support the development of Romania’s mineral sector by respecting people and the environment. Our team is proud to be trusted with this responsibility and excited to support Romania’s secure, sustainable future.”
