All parties at the table keen to arrive at an agre"We continue our discussions with the government of Ecuador with the goal of outlining a stability agreement under which the FDN deposit can be brought into development. As such we have been in regular weekly meetings with Ecuador's Ministry of Petroleum and Mines since early January. Discussions are proceeding well, with all parties at the table keen to arrive at an agreement that benefits the country as well as our investors. The goal is to establish royalties, taxes and other requirements for development of FDN as well as discussing draft-mining laws and policies that will govern the rest of our concessions. The government is aiming to complete these discussions in March."
