The court hearing on the remediation plan for the Barbrook gold mine, approved by Lions Bay Resources, will take place on 12 October 2026. A separate application to remove the current remediation trustee was postponed to 7–8 January 2027 due to interventions by the tribal authority and security firm Belvipoint; both parties support the remediation plan. Metals One holds a 30% stake in Lions Bay and has an option on a further 19.99%; Lions Bay says it has largely implemented the plan and aims to resume mine operations later this year. » More on de.investing.com
