Pursuant to the MOU, the Company and Premium Nickel set forth their interests in negotiating and acquiring several of the assets of BCL Limited, a private company with operations in Botswana that is currently in liquidation. Concurrent with the MOU, the Company initially subscribed for 2,400,000 common shares of Premium Nickel at $0.01, for a total investment of $24,000.

At December 31, 2019, the Company’s investment was recorded as an advance, as the Company had not yet been issued the common share certificate nor the Warrant.
