The tranche of $3 million due in June 2019 has been deferred to June 2020 and the final $2 million is also due for payment on that date.

An interest charge of 9% pa is applicable to the deferred component, which will be capitalised.

As part of the terms of the deferral, Metminco has confirmed its commitment to file an Environmental Impact Study on the Miraflores mine development in the final quarter of 2019 and honouring commitments under the RMB purchase agreement. Final documentation for the agreement is expected to be completed over the next few weeks.
