Cautionary statements
The Corporation previously completed a PEA in 2020, however, given the exploration work completed since and the new mineral resource estimate published in October 2023 and included in the Technical Report, the Corporation does not consider the PEA current and therefore the property is no longer considered an “advanced property” as that term is defined under applicable securities laws.
