The Company is building an attractive portfolio of exploration projects in Zambia and we are pleased to be generating these additional exploration funds from internal resources. We are also pleased to become a shareholder in Aurion once again at a time when its interests in the Risti and Helmi gold discoveries in Finland are delivering exciting exploration results close to Rupert Resources’ 4Moz Ikkari gold discovery.”
