Shares of AIM-listed Vast Resources (LON: VAST) rose, then plummeted after the company released an update on its Baita Plai Mine in Romania.
Vast have released a detailed planned development and mining schedule after the company’s drilling programme is nearing completion.
In its statement, Vast said that there has been a safety issue which has caused a delay of three to four weeks to the first sale of concentrate and that it has instructed an immediate replacement of the access point.
As part of its first sale of concentrate, Vast already has 150 tonnes of prepared copper which will form part of its sale to Mercuria and is expected to be delivered in October.
By 2021 the mining firm plans to be producing over 2,000 tonnes of concentrate by the second quarter of 2021.
