VANCOUVER, BC, March 2,
2022 /CNW/ - Deep-South Resources Inc. ("Deep-South"
or "the Company") (TSXV: DSM) reports that the legal counsel of the
Ministry of Mines and Energy of Namibia ("Ministry") have failed to file their
defense affidavit as ordered by the High Court of Namibia on November 25,
2021. The Ministry's counsels stated that they have
discovered new documents, which are not part of the record of
proceedings. The Ministry's counsel has requested an extension to
file those documents. The legal counsel has filed a joint status
report with the court on February 28,
2022. Deep South's legal counsel recorded in this status
report that the Ministry's counsel previously indicated that a
complete record had been filed. Since the beginning of the
procedures, the Ministry has failed providing any evidence
supporting the decision of the Minister to not renew the Haib
Copper licence EPL 3140.
Deep-South's legal counsel vigorously oppose the extension
request and requested that the judge ensure a just and speedy
determination of the case.
The Court will hold another hearing on March 3, 2022. The latest request of the Ministry
will be considered at that hearing.
The Company will provide regular updates in this regard and any
other matter concerning this situation.
