“This acquisition is an integral part of our strategy to become a multi-mine producer and complements our development stage Malaysian property in diversifying our company over three countries in Southeast Asia. Our due diligence drilling at Capcapo indicates we have a truly world class copper-gold discovery typical of the premium deposits found in the Philippines. I believe our success in negotiating this exciting ground is two fold; first, our successful track record commissioning two gold processing plants that generate us operating cash and second, our recent announcement that we are starting feasibility at Bau Central in the Bau Goldfield, East Malaysia. We are excited about the major potential at Capcapo and our strategic partnership with AMIC.”
