Background

The applicant sought a provisional order interdicting respondents from interfering with its mining operations at Prince 3 mine. The parties had entered into a mining agreement in September 2019, which was amended by consent order in October 2021. A dispute arose over interpretation of royalty payment terms, leading to respondents' purported cancellation of the contract in January 2022.
