Miner Sherritt expects filings delay after external auditor and finance chief leave

Sherritt International said on Wednesday its external auditor has resigned and finance chief has left, adding that these developments would delay first-quarter financial filings and could trigger a halt in trading of its shares in Canada. The Toronto-based miner has been recently hit by a US executive order expanding sanctions against Cuba that also targeted Moa Nickel, a joint venture between Sherritt and Cuba’s State-owned nickel company.
