Seriously with the work that Cuprum have done on LCCM and the intent of that work..... they would only not buy it if they could not get the funding. In this copper market with a mill already in place and known reserves to put through it, I very much doubt that they couldn't get it over the line. They have spent a fair bit of time and I'm sure some wonga to get the licence squared away, the rehabilitation insurance covered, mill updated and developing new processes for the mill..... they would have backed off smartly if the incoming offers of finance seemed poor.
It is not a case of IF but more WHEN!.....As long as the RNS for a delay/extension is puffed out with some updates on their progress and very much intent on progressing, it should not spook anyone given as Slurm has said, it is considered zero in value, but completion does have future benefits that would be price changing. As long as it is seen to be still on the cards then there is nothing lost, SML are not desperate for the money so no sale does not afffect anything to at least end of 2026. It is merely a bonus the sale, eyes should be on the MRE and economic update. There is normal buying and selling in any share but when you have large holders derisking it adds an additional downward pressure which no doubt toook the sting out of the drill results recently.
