having the mill circuit with a full inventory. We are now increasing the gold inventory in the mill circuit. The next

tonnes per hour. Once we reach that level, we will increase production to 80 hours per week at the same rate of
30 tonnes per hour. Last week, we also reached an important milestone by commissioning our sleep camp. We
will be able to attract more talents on our team to reach the goal of eventually produce 30,000 ounces annually.”
