These results have given us the opportunity to now pause and re-evaluate the operations as a whole. Over the next several weeks, the company expects to ascertain the most appropriate scale of operation at Bald Butte and the most economic approach given these noteworthy assay results. We are delighted with the appointment of Mr. Bruce Parker P. Eng. as Head of Operations in Montana. His significant operational experience will be a real asset to the company as we move forward on the Bald Butte project. We would like to welcome Bruce Parker as an integral member of the UNB team.
