We have improved operational and financial performance, and set the foundation for future growth. None of this would have been possible without Peter's tireless efforts. The board deeply thanks him for his contributions. Looking forward, we are positioned for the next stage of significant future growth with a refreshed leadership team in place. Now is the opportune time for succession. Jack brings a combination of strong technical and capital market experience, as well as deep knowledge of our company's history and key stakeholders, to execute on our growth plans."

It has been a pleasure working closely with Jack, and I look forward to seeing him and the team progress the strategy we have put in place. Our assets are operating well, and we have been able to add considerable growth to our production profile. The move to Vancouver has been completed, and all senior executive positions are in place to take the company through the next phase of growth."
