New exploration licence for Greek zeolite – N. Lygeros
A new exploration licence has been granted by the Decentralised Administration of Kavala for Greek zeolite in the Mavri Petra area, near Petrota in Northern Evros.

This also highlights the significance of the whole matter in the Greek context and reinforces the idea that this is a national issue and not merely a local investment with no wider reach.
