NEREID SECTOR — OrionEX has been officially granted a mining license for Abyssis in the Charybdis System, a routine issuance that arrives roughly two weeks after the corporation’s bid. The award confers a standard operating license authorizing commercial extraction within designated zones under established Republic guidelines.

Sector officials described the decision as “procedural,” noting that the license follows the competitive process and incorporates baseline conditions on safety, reporting, and environmental controls consistent with similar issuances.

Scope of the authorization

According to licensing language summarized by sector officials, OrionEX is cleared to:

Commence extraction only within designated zones identified in the operating license.

Conduct supporting activities customary to commercial mining— including haulage, materials handling, and on-site processing—consistent with standard thresholds.

Maintain routine telemetry and production reporting to sector authorities.

Officials emphasized that the license does not adjudicate any previous allegations and applies from the moment of issuance forward.

OrionEX statement

OrionEX welcomed the decision, stating the company is “prepared to begin work within the parameters of the license” and will “continue to meet or exceed all regulatory requirements.” The corporation reiterated that it has “not engaged in extraction on any Nereid world without a duly issued license.”
