"ML&D brings local experience, equipment, and field capabilities that will help us prepare priority drill sites while maintaining a practical, responsible approach to access, disturbance, and reclamation."

The initial scope of work is expected to include construction and preparation of access roads, drill pads, and sumps required to support the upcoming drill campaign (see Figure 1). The Company believes that using a local contractor offers logistical advantages, supports the surrounding community, and streamlines the execution of near-term exploration activities.
