so that all procured items can be delivered from the Port Facility
to the Goose site next spring. Additionally, during the quarter,
the Company completed a field program at the George Property, the
next exploration focus for the Back River Belt. The team also
completed detailed engineering on the process plant and progressed
the project financing process.”
