The appointment of someone of Mike's senority was considered necessary by the Board, against the background of recent acquisitions and project progress. We have appointed Hunter Kennedy to our team as a senior consultant, since in previous assignments he has demonstrated dedication and unusual conceptual ability when approaching geological issues. I welcome both to the team and look forward to their contribution to our enviable portfolio of projects."
