James Gilbertson, Vice President Exploration, Amaroq, commented:

“This updated Mineral Resource Estimate represents a significant step forward for Nalunaq, with a 51% increase in contained gold and, for the first time, strengthening the resource base with the introduction of an Indicated Mineral Resource category; with a head grade of 30.1g/t Au, confirming Nalunaq as one of the highest grade operating mines in the world. Based on the current estimate, the potential mine life has now extended to over 10 years, with substantial upside remaining. We remain committed to ongoing exploration and development activities aimed at further expanding the resource and increasing geological confidence with an aim to move to regular annual Mineral Resource updates, ultimately delivering long-term value to our shareholders.”
