We are about to embark on a very exciting period for the Company, with an extensive drilling programme at the Mt Stirling Gold Project to get underway during the current quarter. Having a geologist of Mr Schulz's calibre and expertise on our Board, broadens our board's skill set, and most importantly gives us the confidence that we are on the right track to be making some significant discoveries.
We would also like to thank Mr Louie Simens for his time as Chairman. Mr Simens has worked tirelessly for the company over the last 6 months and has played a significant part in the company's strategic review and recapitalisation.
