Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant and first respondent have been disputing ownership of the same mining claim (called Midway 21 by applicant and Cliffton 15 by respondent) for several years. A prohibition order was issued in 2018 suspending operations until the dispute was resolved. The applicant filed HC 365/21 seeking declaration of ownership. When the Provincial Mining Director lifted the prohibition order in January 2022 allowing the first respondent to resume operations, the applicant launched this urgent application seeking an interdict pending determination of HC 365/21.
