Company overview
The Directors believe that there are numerous investment opportunities within both private and public businesses in the Base Metals and Precious Metals sector in North America and Australia.
The Directors are of the opinion that there are small scale operating mines and small scale exploration projects in Australia and North America with strong gold mineralisation and economic potential that can benefit by entering into deals with a public company and the resultant ability to access capital. The Directors, together with the Technical Adviser, believe they have the ability to seek out opportunistic deals in these sectors, with good economic exploration and production opportunities, where current management of these projects are not able to access capital or effectively use the public markets in an efficient manner to access capital.
