I would like to thank investors for their overwhelming support. The high demand for this private placement is a testament to the quality of the assets and partnerships we have assembled, and the concurrent advancement of the country wide evaluation of 29 projects under the Barrick Alliance. We look forward to what we believe will be an exciting year ahead for our Company.”
