In December 2021, Türkiye began the move to change its internationally recognized official name in English from Turkey to Türkiye. In June 2022, the United Nations announced it would recognize the new name. The Company is pleased to adopt the new name.

At the end of the second quarter of 2022, Türkiye’s Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change (“Ministry of Environment”) temporarily suspended operations at the Çöpler mine pending implementation of improvement initiatives requested as a result of a leak of leach solution on June 21, 2022. The Company completed these initiatives and received the required regulatory approvals from Türkiye’s Government authorities on September 22, 2022 and all operations were subsequently restarted at the Çöpler mine. During the temporary suspension, Care and maintenance expense was recorded in the Statements of Operations which represents direct costs and depreciation incurred at Çöpler.
