During the award ceremony it was noted that Puma has invested $10 million on exploration and acquisition in New Brunswick since 2006, of which $2 million was spent during the past 18 months to generate continuous discoveries on its properties in the Bathurst Mining camp.
In accepting the award, Marcel Robillard, CEO of Puma stated that he "…accepted the award on behalf of his technical team and Puma shareholders". Addressing the assembled conference delegates which included the Honourable Donald Arsenault, Minister of Natural Resources together with many of his department staff, Mr. Robillard continued, "We love working in New Brunswick due to its very prospective mineral potential, its incomparable infrastructure and especially because of the incredible support we receive from the provincial government including financial incentives. We especially appreciate the professional and rapid work permit response service which allows us to explore faster and more efficiently that in any other jurisdiction."
Puma is currently drilling the Cu-Zn VMS Turgeon Project and finalizing the stripping and trenching program at Brunswick North to locate the prospective Nepisiguit Fall key stratigraphic unit and more massive sulphides. Also, Puma is currently awaiting assay results from our recent stripping program conducted in September at the Turgeon South Bern copper zone.
