("Bushveld" or the "Company")
Operational Update
Bushveld Minerals (AIM: BMN), the AIM quoted, integrated primary vanadium producer, highlighted in its Interim Results announced on 17 September 2024, that the Company remained focused on managing its working capital.
Due to liquidity issues, the Company now finds itself in a position whereby it is unable to continue operating at current production levels. Consequently, a controlled slowdown of production has commenced at Vametco, the length of which will be determined by the timing of receipt of sufficient further funds.
The Company is scheduled to receive further funding on completion of the Vanchem sale, which is imminent.
As a result of the controlled slowdown of production at Vametco the Company is withdrawing 2024 production guidance as detailed in the Company's announcement of 31 July 2024.
The Company is planning to announce its Q3 2024 Operational Update in the first week of November, which will address the impact on 2024 production guidance.
