During operational closure, there were a number of upgrades made to improve recoveries at the mill. With the current higher metal prices, we look forward to generating positive cash flow again. As one of the main employers in the area, the restart of operations will play a critical role for the local communities, and it was important to bring a local workforce back.&#8221;</a></p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0in; text-align:justify;">Management expects throughput at the mill will ramp-up quickly to levels prior to shut down.
