(FUU), always a busy trader but busier than usual of late, fell 1.5 cents to 15.5 cents on 9.84 million shares. Mind you, it gained two cents to 17 cents on 6.56 million shares yesterday.

Ltd. received a disappointing arbitration decision in its six-year dispute with China-based Jiangxi Jinhui Lithium Co. Ltd. regarding the Karibib lithium, rubidium and cesium project in Namibia.
