Forward‐Looking Information
This news release contains "forward‐looking information" and “forward looking statements” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws. Forward‐looking information and statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to planned exploration activities, the future interpretation of geological information; whether results thereof will lead to estimated mineral resources and the timing of such estimates. Generally, but not always, forward looking information and statements can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”, “expects”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates”, or “believes” or the negative connotation thereof or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved” or the negative connation thereof. Forward‐ looking information and statements are based on the then current expectations, beliefs, assumptions, estimates and forecasts about the Company’s business and the industry and markets in which it operates.
Such forward information and statements are based on numerous assumptions, including among others, that the results of planned exploration activities are as anticipated, the price of uranium, the cost of planned exploration activities, that financing will be available if and when needed and on reasonable terms, that third party contractors, equipment and supplies and governmental and other approvals required to conduct the Company’s planned exploration activities will be available on reasonable terms and in a timely manner and that general business and economic conditions will not change in a material adverse manner. Although the assumptions made by the Company in providing forward looking information or making forward‐looking statements are considered reasonable by management at the time, there can be no assurance that such assumptions will prove to be accurate.
Forward‐looking information and statements also involves known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors, which may cause actual events or results in future periods to differ materially from any projections of future events or results expressed or implied by such forward‐looking information or statements, including, among others: negative operating cash flow and dependence on third party financing, uncertainty of additional financing, no known mineral reserves or resources, alternative sources of energy, aboriginal title and consultation issues, reliance on key management and other personnel; potential downturns in economic conditions; actual results of exploration activities being different than anticipated; changes in exploration programs based upon results; availability of third party contractors; availability of equipment and supplies; failure of equipment to operate as anticipated; accidents, effects of weather and other natural phenomena and other risks associated with the mineral exploration industry; environmental risks; changes in laws and regulations; community relations; and delays in obtaining governmental or other approvals.
Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward‐looking information or implied by forward‐looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward‐looking information and statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated, estimated or intended. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward‐looking statements or information. NexGen undertakes no obligation to update or reissue forward‐looking information as a result of new information or events except as required by applicable securities laws.
