Executive Comments
Managing Director David Southam stated, “We have been generating outstanding results at Chibougamau and the proceeds of this raising will enable us to unlock the value much faster. There is clearly immense scope to grow and upgrade the project’s resource on the back of Corner Bay and Golden Eye. Given this potential, we want to move as quickly as possible on the exploration front and advance our study work at the same time. This comes against a backdrop of increased M&A activity in the copper space which demonstrates that finding high-grade copper/gold projects with infrastructure in mining friendly jurisdictions are rare – we just happen to have one of the best.”
