Courts and disputes

Everest Alliance, which owns 7.5% of Petropavlovsk, proposes to put to the shareholders' vote the issue of conducting an independent examination of gold mining transactions and agreements for the last 3 years. The review should cover the transactions and agreements of Petropavlovsk itself as well as any of its subsidiaries and affiliates. The purpose of the expertise is to determine whether all these transactions were in the interests of the company and its shareholders.
