Executive Commentary

The strongly supported Placement allows us to accelerate exploration at the Vista Montana Prospect, which we believe is connected to the Lana Corina Prospect where we have made a new high-grade copper discovery, with recent drilling returning a long, high-grade intersection of 454m @ 0.93% CuEq from 90m. The Company thanks its existing shareholders for their support and welcomes new investors. We look forward to providing regular updates on the progress of our field programs.
