Shadows Disappearing

I have a large world and there are heights exceeding 2000m, this quick code example shows that at a height higher than 660m the shadow disappears but interestingly the stats still say it's being drawn.  Can anyone else confirm this?  Is there shadow range for the world or something or is this a bug?

#include "App.h"
using namespace Leadwerks;

App::App() : window(NULL), context(NULL), world(NULL), camera(NULL) {}
App::~App() { delete world; delete window; }

Model* box;
Camera* camera;
bool wireframe = false;

bool App::Start()
{
	window = Window::Create("Shadows",50,50, 1024, 768);
	window->Show();
	context = Context::Create(window);
	world = World::Create();

	DirectionalLight* light = DirectionalLight::Create();
	light->SetRotation(35, 35, 35);
	
	float offsetY = 670.0f;//Increase to 670.0f and shadow disapears.
	camera = Camera::Create();
	camera->Move(0, 1 + offsetY, -2);
	
	box = Model::Box();
	box->Move(0, 1 + offsetY, 0);

	Pivot* centre = Pivot::Create();

	int xGrid = 3;
	int zGrid = 3;
	int vertIndex = 0;

	Model* mdl = Model::Create();
	Surface* surface = mdl->AddSurface();
	for (int z = 0; z < zGrid; z++) {
		for (int x = 0; x < xGrid; x++) {
			surface->AddVertex(x, offsetY, z,0,1,0);
			if (z != 0 && x != 0) {
				surface->AddTriangle(vertIndex, vertIndex - xGrid, vertIndex - 1);
				surface->AddTriangle(vertIndex - xGrid, vertIndex - xGrid - 1, vertIndex - 1);
			}
			vertIndex++;
		}
	}
	surface->Update();
	mdl->UpdateAABB(Entity::LocalAABB | Entity::GlobalAABB);

	return true;
}

bool App::Loop()
{
	if (window->KeyHit(Key::Escape) == true) { return false; }
	if (window->KeyHit(Key::F1) == true) { camera->GetDebugPhysicsMode() == true ? camera->SetDebugPhysicsMode(false) : camera->SetDebugPhysicsMode(true); }
	if (window->KeyHit(Key::F2) == true) {
		if (wireframe == true) {
			camera->SetDrawMode(0);
			wireframe = false;
		}
		else {
			camera->SetDrawMode(2);
			wireframe = true;
		}
	}

	Vec3 rot = box->GetRotation();
	rot.x += 0.2f;
	rot.y += 0.2f;
	rot.z += 0.2f;
	box->SetRotation(rot);

	Time::Update();
	world->Update();
	world->Render();

	context->SetBlendMode(Blend::Alpha);
	context->DrawStats(10.0f, 10.0f, true);
	context->Sync(true);

	return true;
}

EDIT  : It seems to be fine in the editor.  I have some objects at a Y position of 23000.0
