Spoke to the Co today and was told that generally the year has been successful overall, albeit they have suffered somewhat from the global downturn. The battery plant produced about 30,000 tonnes (licensed for 36) and although lead prices moved about, 2500/tonne seemed to be the average. Other plant also operated satisfactorily but I didn't press them about their various products/sales volumes. No confirmation re dividend, but person I spoke to said he thought there probably would be. cheers jwt
