President and CEO for the Company. The Company has been working recently to update the metallurgical studies and expects to
resume its expansion and exploration drill program as soon as logistics permit. This will include follow-up of the recently
discovered footwall zone in a drill hole that intersected 4.1 m of 38.2% ZnEq (incl. 612 g/t Ag and
