Limited ("Xinmao") have agreed to an extension of the deadline for the completion of the funding package announced on 19 January 2023 to 31 May 2023 (originally 30 April 2023).

The extension will provide additional time for certain conditions precedent to be satisfied, including the transfer of the Bougouni Project to a new Mali mining company owned by Kodal's recently incorporated UK subsidiary, Kodal Mining UK Limited ("KMUK").
