burdening the project with streams or royalties, or compromising the company’s future strategic
flexibility,” said Hugh Agro, President & CEO. “We’re pleased to have Dundee continue as a
committed shareholder and are excited to welcome EMR as a new strategic equity partner that
shares our vision and is aligned with our mission to deliver significant growth and value in gold,”
