I've backed with conviction. Each one represents what I believe to be a high-potential opportunity in the
mining sector. These are names I have researched deeply, invested in personally, and believe have the
potential to deliver meaningful value. Amvest Capital has been an outstanding partner in building a week
of events that meets the standards these investors and companies deserve," said Michael Gentile.
