Forward Strategy
----- End of picture text -----

  • Nickel

Continue to explore and grow the Fisher East resource – leverage for an improved nickel price

Zinc

Unlock the value of Teena via a spin out – keep exposure, but reduce the funding risk

Gold

$10M JV with Doray at Mt Fisher – minimum of $1 million to be spent in next 12 months

  • Copper

Add value through further exploration

  • Business Development

Continue to seek new project opportunities
