The Technical Report and Mineral Resource Estimate establish a benchmark in terms of contained gold and silver ounces at Santa Fe. We view this benchmark as just the beginning: our focus going forward is to expand this maiden resource, with a focus on shallow oxide gold and silver mineralization, targeting an updated and expanded Mineral Resource Estimate and Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") in the near future. The Santa Fe Mine has the potential to be brought back into production quickly with a robust production profile, therefore we want to establish preliminary project economics as rapidly as possible".
