You know fine well commissioning took a month and a half longer than anticipated. Then Kinusi failed to deliver, and AUO departed so Marula ran out of working capital. You can't buy feed material, process and transport manganese without working capital.
I should imagine there is either an interm funding arrangement being made, a new logistics agreement to be negotiated or a small placing to come to start the manganese shipments.
Welcome to mining. Most mining companies you witness just the one project stalling and falling behind by years so its easier to deal with the disappointment. With Marula they have 5 or 10 projects with the potential.to be delayed by years and when we lose a funder, commodity prices fail or a key project doesn't deliver free cash flow, well the whole business goes into limp mode. Thats pretty standard for a junior miner.
