Ivan Bebek, Executive Chairman, stated, “We wish to thank our shareholders for their continued support. Although not
representative in our recent share price performance, the Company is in the best position it has been in for a major discovery
at Committee Bay where drilling is anticipated to begin July of 2018. Additionally, the initial surface work and field
investigations at the Company’s Sombrero district in Peru have been impressive where large-scale gold and copper skarn &
porphyry systems have been identified.”
Ivan Bebek further stated, “We are looking forward to a busy second half of 2018 with programs continuing across the portfolio.
Results are pending from Committee Bay’s infill tills across eight targets in addition to the Aiviq discovery that will form the
basis of the 2018 summer drill campaign. Surface results from trenching and systematic rock sampling are expected from the
Sombrero project within the coming weeks.”
