GCM Resources PLC - Resource exploration and development company focused on the Phulbari coal and power project in north-west Bangladesh - On Thursday said that its shares will be temporarily suspended from trading on the AIM market due to a delay in the completion of its financial 2023 audit. The suspension will begin on Tuesday next week. The company says it will be unable to publish the completed audit for the year ended June 30 by the end of December as planned, though it expects to be able to do so within the first three weeks of January once it has completed the necessary funding process. The company is still awaiting the receipt of funds from the drawdown of GBP300,000 of its loan facility with Polo Resources Ltd as announced in March 2021. As a result of this delay, GCM is considering alternative funding.
