"We would like to thank our shareholders for their support and interest in our projects. Our Eldorado West and Eldorado East acquisitions are standing out to investors as a district-scale opportunity in Eastern Oregon. We continue to advance these projects diligently and are excited to have this financing behind us to enable our drill program to continue throughout the summer. We are excited to finally start receiving assays and continue to build on the gold mineralization and footprint at Eldorado. This project has unusually strong grade and scale. I believe it is just beginning to reveal its impressive dimensions as we continue to expand our exploration and drilling." - Rauno Perttu, CEO
