Earlier on Wednesday, Jubilee said “doing all things necessary” to assist BMR after the joint venture partner lost its mining right for their Kabwe joint venture project in Zambia.
Shares in BMR were suspended on Wednesday after receiving a letter from the Mining Cadastre Department of Zambia terminating its mining right for the Kabwe lead, zinc and vanadium project in the country.
