FORWARD - LOOKING STATEMENT Certain of the statements made and information contained herein is - looking within the meaning of applicable securities laws . This includes statements by the Company concerning exploration results, including deposit size, quantities, grades and contained metals, which are generally made on the basis of estimations and extrapolations from a limited number of drill holes and assays . These estimations and extrapolations are subject to uncertainties, which include but are not limited to uncertainty in connection with evaluating a deposit until the deposit has been extensively drilled on closely spaced centers . Should one or more of these underlying estimations or extrapolations prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in forward - looking statements . Forward - looking statements contained herein also include the plans for its mineral properties, which involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward - looking information . Forward - looking information is subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward - looking information, including, without limitation, the ability of the Company to continue to be able to access capital markets for the funding necessary to acquire and maintain exploration properties and to carry out its desired exploration programs ; difficulties in executing exploration programs according to the proposed schedules and within its cost estimates, whether due to weather conditions in the areas where it operates, increasingly stringent environmental regulations and other permitting restrictions, or the availability of essential supplies and services ; and factors beyond the capacity of the Company to anticipate and control, such as the marketability of minerals, government regulations relating to health, safety and the environment, and the scale and scope of royalties and taxes on production . Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results may vary materially from those described in forward - looking statements .
