Neil Ringdahl

The new resource estimate strongly demonstrates the additional blue-sky potential of this polymetallic deposit, and to this end we plan to continue our aggressive exploration and development efforts. We are particularly pleased with the significant increase in silver ounces in the Indicated category, upon which we are able to continue with the feasibility work for a mine that is now likely to be substantially larger than what has been previously projected in studies.
