Yes it very well could be if that is the case, otherwise no one would be interested in the stock.

Question is, is it likely to happen given the information we have been given?

According to the market's reaction, most people are saying "No"

I asked yesterday if anyone could shed some light on the process they need to go through to be granted permission to dig this out of the ground.

Surely someone that has money still tied up in here would be able to answer that question?

If not I would certainly be trying to find out as quickly as possible before the share price continues on its way down.
