Negative decision by State Administrative Tribunal

Churchill Mining (AIM:CHL), announces that the State Administrative Tribunal in Samarinda, East Kalimantan has today ruled against Churchill Mining Plc (“Churchill” or “the Company”) and its Indonesian partners, the Ridlatama Group (“Ridlatama”). 

Under the Indonesian legal system an Administrative Tribunal is supposed to rule strictly on matters of process as to whether bureaucrats, elected officials, and government institutions have observed procedural rules and regulations in making decisions. The proceedings before the Samarinda Administrative Tribunal do not constitute an action that will immediately affect the substantive rights of the owners of the EKCP Licenses and the decision by the Samarinda Administrative Tribunal is not final and binding as a matter of law until after all appeal avenues have been exhausted.
