The company also provided its outlook for 2015:

Wallbridge commenced operation of its Broken Hammer open-pit mine in mid-2014, which has provided the Company with steady cash flow. The life-of-mine cash flow from the operations for the project is expected to be in the range of $3 to $4 million based on metal prices and USD exchange rate at September 30, 2015. This forecast is lower than previous estimates due to lower realized metal prices in the last three months and the expected low metal price environment in the next few months (for details please refer to Wallbridge press release dated July 15, 2014). However, should the metal prices or US dollar exchange fluctuate, the forecasted cash flow would be affected accordingly.
Over the coming months, the Company will be evaluating a number of business opportunities in order to maintain a revenue stream. The Company continues to maintain its strategy of current joint venture funding as well as generating new projects and developing them through either a partnership or on its own.
