Tsodilo Resources Limited on Tuesday filed an interlocutory application with the High Court in Maun seeking to compel the Minister of Minerals and Energy, Lefoko Moagi to comply with the judgment the court granted on December 15, 2023.

The application also seeks Minister Moagi to show cause why he ought not to be held in contempt of court by reason of his failure to comply with the December 15 judgment of the court.

The court order lapsed on December 29, 2023. In that ruling, Justice Professor Bugalo Maripe had ordered and directed Moagi to renew, within 14 days, Gcwihaba Resources (PTY) Ltd’s prospecting licence (020/2018).
