Monitor for assay results from the drilling program expected by end of Q3 2026. Positive results could validate the exploration thesis and potentially re-rate the stock, while negative results would confirm the high-risk nature of exploration. The PEA economics provide a long-term valuation framework but are preliminary and subject to significant uncertainty.
