    • The company has a history of mining in the area and has produced 650,000 ounces of gold since the 1980s.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "We're starting a drill program. It's going to be the biggest drill program that's taken place at the mine since 2006." 

    "I think precious metals has a value from an ethical perspective in that people work very hard to earn their money to make a living." 

    "Living those values, both on the why of what you do and also the how you do it." 

    "We have a permitted project, as I said, we have a plant, and I think we have very good potential and a great outlook to bring this mine back into production in the 2024 period."
