Notable Quotes
“These are precisely the types of opportunities we are looking for – areas where both mining waste and recent logging road construction may present an opportunity to find easily accessible and potentially mineral‑rich waste rock… Assuming we can successfully navigate permitting … these new areas continue to present win‑win scenarios for Sasquatch, local communities and the Province.” – Peter Smith, CEO
Materiality Assessment: Non‑Material – Positive (small monetary value but strategically significant for future exploration and remediation activities).
