For whatever reason, what you've stated, "in about 6 months", has quite a different meaning to what's stated by PDI which is "within 6 months".

Regardless, granting of the exploitation permit, once PDI has provided all information, will rely on the government & therefore out of Predictive's control, so a delay of a few weeks or even months is of zero consequences, particularly in view of the massive value the company & stakeholders will net. I have zero doubts that the permit will be granted over the next few months & that 30c will be viewed as a diminishing spec in the rear vision mirror.
