I am pleased to report that the Vares Project remains on schedule and on budget with first concentrate production planned for Q3 2023. Today the Project passed a significant milestone with 50% of project construction now complete. In addition, with 76% of the total construction capital committed, we will continue to address any remaining inflationary and budget concerns.
"In addition to the successful Project development, we are also approaching completion of the year-long confirmation and definition drilling programme at Rupice with exploration drills continuing to step-out along the Rupice Northwest extension. Both programmes are anticipated to increase the life of mine, as all holes have intercepted mineable thicknesses of massive and semi-massive sulphides.
"Our aim is to build a company - and not just a project. We are focusing Adriatic's zero-harm philosophy, prioritising the health and safety of our employees, contractors and host communities. There has been an introduction of new standards, systems and processes, with a particular focus on contractor management.
50% of total Project construction complete.
• Decline development is progressing as planned, with the lower decline currently at 277m and upper decline at 177m at 21 November.

TT will not be required to make any future contributions into the Scheme regarding defined benefit liabilities and the buy-in delivers greater security to the Scheme's members. The Scheme's circa £400 million of liabilities are now matched by the insurance policy, and TT no longer bears any investment, longevity, interest rate or inflation risk in respect of the Scheme.
There will be an immediate benefit to the Group's current year cash flow of £6 million and an equivalent annual improvement to free cash flow in future years.
The pension benefits that Scheme members will receive in the future are almost entirely unaffected by this transaction.
Mark Hoad, TT Chief Financial Officer commented:
"This transaction is an excellent outcome for our defined benefit pension scheme members, TT and our shareholders. We have worked hand in hand with the Scheme's Trustee over the last few years to reach this position. Those efforts, combined with excellent stewardship by the Scheme's Trustee Directors, has meant that the Scheme can now be fully de-risked for the benefit of members and the Group.
TT Electronics plc ("TT", "the Group"), a global provider of engineered electronics for performance critical applications, is pleased to announce that it has completed a buy-in of all its UK defined benefit pension liabilities giving an immediate £6 million cash flow benefit.
The Trustee of the TT Electronics Pension Scheme (the "Scheme") has purchased a bulk annuity insurance policy from Legal and General Assurance Society Limited ("L&G"), covering all liabilities required to pay all future defined benefit pensions for the Scheme's circa 5,000 members and any eligible dependants.
The purchase of this insurance policy is the successful culmination of extensive work over the last few years by TT and the Scheme Trustees. The insurance policy has been purchased using existing assets held within the Scheme, without the need for TT to make any additional contributions.
