Munchbox, I know the frustrations you are feeling, believe me being here now for 11 years, however you have to remember Mark has had a number of challenges beyond the control of him and our board. Firstly he had to bounce back after the misfortune of seeing El Salvador go belly up, no fault or blame on the company, just the country decided on a moritorium on mining to safeguard clean water, probably brought about unscrupulous activities of other operators in the country. Then we had the civil unrest in Nicaragua which dented our progress, again beyond our control. More recently we saw B2Gold’s change of direction, the timing of which could not have been worse with Mark on the cusp of finalising a toll agreement and we now have the pandemic. Throughout all of these set backs, Mark has continued to push on, travelling backwards and forwards to Nicaragua, and I am not exaggerating, putting his life at risk, sometimes against government advice, to keep this project on track. Are you aware on what he is currently doing while you knock him from the comfort of your armchair? Do you bother to correspond with him directly to voice your concerns? If not I wholeheartedly recommend it because he will reply, more often than not within a matter of hours. We have plenty to look forward to and I am certain we are only a matter of weeks away from news we are all waiting for. More patience is needed unfortunately, but I have no doubt, with Mark recently in country, he is doing all that is needed to bring this project to fruition.
