Earnings Call: Q2 2020

Aug 14, 2020

Thank you for standing by. This is the conference operator. Welcome to the K92 Mining Second Quarter Financial Results Conference Call and Webcast. As a reminder, all participants are in listen only mode and the conference is being recorded. After the presentation, there will be an opportunity to ask questions. I would now like to turn the conference over to David Medelich, Vice President, Business Development and Investor Relations for opening remarks. Please go ahead. Thank you, operator, and thanks everyone for attending K92 Mining's Q2 2020 conference call. We hope you and your families are doing well. In addition to myself, we have on the line John Lewins, Chief Executive Officer and Director and Justin Blanchett, Chief Financial Officer. I would also like to remind everyone that after the remarks from management, the call will be followed by a Q and A session. As we will be making forward looking statements during the call, please refer to the cautionary notes and risk disclosure in our MD and A. Also, please bear in mind that all dollar amounts mentioned in the conference call are in United States dollars unless otherwise noted. Now, I'll turn it over to John to provide you with an overview. Okay. Thanks, David, and welcome everyone to our Q2 presentation. So the Q2 clearly represented an important step forward for K92. We believe we certainly delivered in most of our operational objectives, which are really towards expanding our production capabilities and of course, furthering our growth through exploration at Cananta. And I think importantly, when we were looking at the quarter, It was what we've achieved, we've achieved at the height of the uncertainty of the COVID-nineteen pandemic. And that I think is important in showing the operational resilience, in showing the commitment of our workforce, the quality of the team of people that we have on the project at all levels, the quality of the resource at Cora, which I don't think anyone would question. And really importantly, the strong support that we've had from all levels of government in PNG. If we start with safety, which is where we normally start our day, we've had no lost time injuries during the quarter. And when you actually look at our operation, we've had one lost time injury since start of operations in 2017. It's almost full year since we had in 4 years, we've just had that one lost time injury. So we have one of the best safety records in the Australasian region. And that really is a very strong focus for us. And I guess we are we believe justifiably proud of our record there. If we look at the production front, Canantu delivered record production, 26,847,000 ounces gold equivalent and a record mill throughput, bit over 49,300 tons. If we compare that to the Q2 2019, gold equivalent production was up by 37%, mill throughput up by 30%. Head grade in that second quarter, 17 point 6 gram per tonne gold, 0.54 percent copper. Gold head grades were above budget and importantly continue to deliver a positive grade reconciliation against our resource. And this continued when we look at the months of May June against the new core resource model, which we released in May. Going forward, production growth as we've been stating quite clearly will be driven by tonnage and not by grade. And hence the whole expansion that we're busy with is designed to double our throughput and double our throughput take us up to the capacity of up to 140,000 ounces a year. That increase in tonnage requires us to be mining both K1 and K2. And so it will be a balance of K1 and K2. And overall, that gives us a lower grade than the grades that we've been processing for the last 2 years. This quarter production from long haul stoping has increased as expected and we anticipate we'll continue with that transition to our target, which is to get to about 80% of our stocks being long haul, utilizing that modified a bulk method. It will take us until mid-twenty 21 to get to that 80%. So we're still quite a bit of our stopes are also cut and fill. Stoping, over the last quarter was conducted long haul stoping on both K1 and K2 veins and pretty much perform the design. So we're happy with what we're seeing in terms of the long hole stoping. And that long haul stoping brings us an enhancement in our operational flexibility and obviously associated with that is our throughput capability. In terms of near term production, Q3, we are now focused on the commissioning of our expansion. The commissioning originally was supposed to have commenced at the end of the first quarter and run through the Q2. Due to the COVID-nineteen state of emergency that has been delayed. And so we are now in right now today, we're in the process of carrying out our commissioning of the plant expansion. We've already commissioned the crusher. We've almost completed commissioning of our new process control system and we're busy commissioning the expansion to the float and recovery system. While we're doing that, one of the things that we are doing is deliberately putting lower grade material through. So while we're commissioning with the hiccups that one expects to get in commissioning, we don't want to be throwing away high grade materials. So we will be treating low grade material during this period. And so certainly this quarter, we would expect production will be a little lower than it was in the last quarter. And then in the Q4 of the year, we obviously anticipate with a complete new plant commissioned that our tonnage will significantly increase in the Q4 as will our overall production. And I'd make the point, I think that currently we're sitting with about 24,000 tons in stock pump on surface. And when you consider that we treated 49,000 tons in this last quarter, That's a significant amount of material that we've got sitting ahead of us that allows us to ramp up production overall. So with that, I will turn over to our Chief Financial Officer, Justin Blanche to discuss the financial results for the quarter. Thanks, Justin. Thank you, John, and hello, everyone. Our Q2 2020 revenue increased by 105% to $47,900,000 compared to $23,300,000 in Q2 2019. The increase in revenue was attributable to an increase in the realized selling gold price of $16.31 per ounce as compared to $12.58 per ounce in the prior year, as well as increased production. As of June 30, 2020, there are 3,439 ounces of gold in concentrate inventory that was sold in July 2020. Cost of sales was $18,400,000 for the quarter, an increase of 47% compared to the Q2 of 2019. This was primarily due to a 30% increase in tonnage processed. The increase in cost of sales was in line with expectations when accounting for improved efficiencies and economies of scale. In addition, the company incurred costs related to the COVID-nineteen pandemic, including additional pay for employees completing longer rosters at site, additional costs related to the movement of personnel and supplies and additional safety and medical related costs. In comparison to Q2 2019, exploration and evaluation expenditures decreased to $844,000 from 1,370,000 dollars primarily due to the restriction in activity caused by the COVID-nineteen pandemic. Cash flow from operating activities for Q2 2020 increased by 137 percent to $23,200,000 As of June 30, we had nearly 35,000,000 dollars in cash and cash equivalents, while still paying $4,200,000 year to date in principal loan payments to Trafigura, having a remaining balance of $9,100,000 at June 30 and spending $10,800,000 year to date in expansion capital. As John mentioned, in Q2 2020, Kanantu Gold Operations produced 25,762 ounces of gold, 531,406 pounds of copper and 10,867 ounces of silver. During the same period prior year we or sorry, during the same period, we sold 27,149 ounces of gold, 566,084 pounds of copper and 11,729 ounces of silver. We incurred a cash cost of $5.96 per ounce and an all in sustaining cost of $6.78 per ounce, which is significantly below our realized gold selling price of $16.31 per ounce for the quarter. In comparison, 18,980 ounces of gold, £261,800 of copper and 6,894 ounces of silver were produced and 18,824 ounces of gold, 265,640 pounds of copper and 7,138 ounces of silver were sold in Q2 2019. A cash cost of $5.72 and an all in sustaining cost of $703 per ounce were also well below the Q2 2019 realized selling price of $12.58 per gold ounce. Our 2020 cash cost per ounce increased relative to the prior year due to a greater focus on mining the K2 vein with gold grades in line with budget as well as additional costs incurred related to the COVID-nineteen pandemic. We see downward pressure on costs via economies of scale once the Stage 2 mill expansion commissioning is completed and long haul stoping activities are expanded. I will now turn the call back to John to continue with the rest of the presentation. Thanks, Justin. Okay. Let's move on. Looking at exploration, we're obviously very pleased with the progress that we've seen today. In May, we announced a very significant increase in our results at Cora. As I indicated, increasing to 1,100,000 ounces at 10.5 grams per tonne gold equivalent and inferred up to 3,700,000 ounces at 9 gram per tonne gold equivalent. So very significant increase of 180% on the M and I and 50% on the inferred from the October 2018 resource. Drilling has really continued to deliver strong results during the quarter, and that's really highlighting the continuity in the growth potential. I'd make the point that the updated resource was included drilling through until the beginning of April. So anything from April onwards is basically additional to what that was. Drilling highlights have included 8.8 meters at 34 gram per tonnegold equivalent K1, 10.4 meters at 25.4 gram per tonnegoldequivalentk2 and 2.8 meters at 25 gram per tonne gold equivalent in K3. K3 vein is actually quite interesting. It's got limited drilling to date and it's not certainly not included in our resource and certainly something that we will be targeting as we move further to the site where it seems to become more prevalent. Also important to note that the results that we've defined very much remains open at depth. All the deep holes that we've put in have shown the continuity of system and we have not been able to show any of those holes at depth where it pinches out. Likewise, a long strike to the side. Holes that we drilled continue to show it going to the side. That step out drilling to the South is going to be a major focus for the balance of 2020 and into 2021. And in addition to that, major focus will be in increasing our measures and indicated for our Stage 3 expansion for the definitive feasibility study. We did announce that our most southerly drill cutty was completed in July. And currently, one of our rigs underground is drilling from there. And we will shortly be reporting our most southerly holes that we've drilled to date. So already with the drilling that we've been doing, we've been drilling outside of our current resource. So we're already showing that the resource expands to the south. In addition, exploration, we're also testing a number of near mined targets at Kurenpe and Jug. And certainly Kurenpe currently we have 2 surface rigs drilling and we would expect to have our first results out from there probably by the end of this month. In addition to that, we've got drilling at Blue Lake planned to commence in the Q4 with the arrival of 2 new rigs on-site. These are our own rigs that we've ordered and had manufactured in Canada, they're in transit and they will be operational in the Q4. So if you look at today, we've currently got 7 rigs operating. We've got 3 rigs on the surface, 2 at Karimpe, 1 at a regional target called Kapoor, 4 rigs drilling underground. Underground rigs currently are focused on Cora, but we will be doing some drilling on Judd from underground certainly in the coming quarter. 2 new rigs for the surface coming in takes us up to 9 and we're potentially looking at another rig for underground as well. So potentially 10 rigs by the end of the year operating 5 on the surface, 5 underground. And certainly, if I let my VP lose VP expiration lose, it will be a few more than 5 by early next year. And in July, we made significant progress in terms of the review of our memorandum of agreement. The memorandum of agreement is an agreement that every mine in PNG needs to have, which is between the mine, the community, local level government, provincial government, central government and administered by the MRA, the Mineral Resources Authority or the Mines Department as many people would recognize that. This has been delayed for some time and a source of, I guess, frustration for ourselves and for our community. And part of that support that we've seen from government is that the minister, the honorable Johnson Touquet made it a priority to get our MOA review going again, even though we were in effectively in a state of emergency. We made arrangements for the next meeting to occur. And as soon as the state of emergency was lifted, we've actually held a week long meeting where the minister made himself available for the entire week. The Governor of the Eastern Highlands province, the Honorable Peter Newman was also there for the entire week was as was the Head of the Mineral Resources Department, MD of the MRA. So we had exceptional support from government both at the central level, provincial level and from our own community. And at the end of a week, we had an extremely good week. And at the end of that week, we reached an agreement in principle, covering plans for local landowners and additional funding commitments, community infrastructure, multiple business initiatives, commitments from government in terms of the support that they will be providing and also looking at honoring an original agreement from when we took over the operation, which was to provide an opportunity for local landowners in the Eastern Highlands provincial government to acquire a 5% interest in MR150, Mining Lease 150. So we were extremely happy with the outcome that we've seen from that. That is now going into a phase of finalization and certainly our expectation is there will be a formal signing of the new MOA in the coming quarter. And that has been something which has been about 2 years in the pipeline. So we're extremely happy to see that. In terms of the operations and the COVID-nineteen pandemic, To date, we have had no confirmed cases amongst our employees. As I mentioned, the state of emergency was lifted, it was lifted in June. But there remains a series of restrictions in place as in every country. And we have seen an increase in the number of cases of COVID-nineteen in P and G. It's currently sitting a little bit under 300, but that is a significant increase from where it's been. In our case, we have continued to modify protocols to deal with COVID-nineteen and our response plans. On-site, we have trained doctors, nurses. We have one of the rapid PCR testing systems. In fact, we have 2 PCR testing systems. We have quarantine protocols in place for all personnel arriving on-site. No matter where they come from, We don't have local community people that walk in and walk out of site. Everything is effectively locked down with everyone coming in and staying in our camp. The camp itself, we have over the last 12 to 18 months, we've basically doubled its capacity to now something over 800. We're also pleased to say that we are supporting both the community and government through a $1,500,000 Kina K92 COVID-nineteen Assistance Fund. And some of those monies have already been drawn down by the provincial governments. And I think just about to do some drawdowns for the central government. So that has been from our view, it's an important initiative and it's certainly been very well received in country. Lastly, but certainly not by any means recently, we've obviously been very excited about our near term growth trajectory at K92. In July, we announced the Stage 3 expansion PEA, outlining what we would call a potential Tier 1 asset with an average 318,000 ounces gold equivalent production per annum at our run rate and a life of mine average all in sustaining cost of 3.62 dollars per gold ounce net of product byproduct credits. And that expansion will be fully funded at a gold price of $1500 an ounce. The CapEx that we were looking at there dollars 125,000,000 of upfront capital. When we bring in the sustaining capital over the 3 year development period, a total of $240,000,000 CapEx spent in 2021, 2022 and 2023. All of that would be funded from cash flow from our existing operation. Existing operation, as I mentioned, the Stage 2 expansion, the commissioning is underway. We've already commissioned the upgraded pressure circuit and it is operating very well. We're certainly getting the throughput that we anticipated. We've commissioned the upgraded SCADA process control system and we're busy with the commissioning of the flotation system right now. Tonnage wise, we've seen a significant increase in tons and certainly over the last 3 days, I think we've averaged in excess of 900 tons per day for the last 3 days. And to put that into context, our capacity prior to the expansion is 500 to 550. We're still very much in the early stage of the next expansion and we're already up to 900 to 1000 tons. So we're very happy with how things are going in terms of the expansion. It is clearly more challenging to be commissioning in this environment. There are no OEM suppliers, representatives or whatever on-site. It's all being done by our own people. So commissioning does take a bit longer because you've got to go through you've got to do it by the numbers. But to date, that's going very well. And then perhaps worth mentioning the Twin Incline development, which is also underway was again put on hold with the state of emergency that is now very much underway. And we've got all of the mobile plant and equipment that was specifically purchased for that is all on-site. We've been bringing and starting to bring in additional expats as we will actually be developing that ourselves. So that's also going ahead. Exploration, as I've mentioned, ramping up and we certainly expect to see additional results coming from Cora, coming from Judd, coming from other vein targets. In that Q4, we got Cora, we got Cora South, we've got Karimpe, Blue Lake, Judd. So there's a fair amount happening on the exploration front and a pretty exciting time, I think, coming up in this quarter and then leading into the Q4. I think we're very happy to report the results of this of the second quarter. And I think it sets us very well up very well for the balance of 2020 beyond. And with that, operator, perhaps we could commence the Q and A session. Certainly. We will now begin the question and answer session. The first question comes from Varun Arora with Clarus Securities. Please go ahead. Thank you, operator. Hi, guys. Congratulations on the good quarterly performance. A couple of questions on the Stage 2 commissioning. To start with, could you, John, elaborate on the work that needs to be done to complete the commissioning? And is that expected to have an impact on the mill availability and throughput in Q3? Okay. So commissioning of Stage 2, as I mentioned, the front end, the crusher and everything else has been done. The process control system done, the gravity done and we're now on the floor. We would expect from a tonnage perspective that we will see a higher tonnage than we saw in Q2. But I would expect the grades will be significantly lower because as I mentioned, we have been deliberately running lower grade material through the plant while we've been doing this commissioning. Plant availability has actually been lower and that's because we've had it stopped on occasion to do tie ins to the new sections. But even with the stoppages, we actually expect that the tonnage throughput will actually be higher than the second quarter. Okay. Thank you. And just one more question. Basically, what are you expecting on the throughput and unit costs at the end of Q3 after you're exiting the commissioning phase and then by year end? And the life of mine operating costs per the PEA, they are expected around $94 per ton range. So do you expect to be around that level by year end? Well, first off, I think in terms of operating costs, we would certainly not expect to be in the sort of life of mine operating costs that we've put out for the PEA and obviously is based on 1,000,000 tons per annum. So certainly from that perspective, we don't expect to see that sort of cost. I think overall costs currently would be probably around the $200 per tonne And we would expect to see that coming down to by the end of the year as we get into our full 400,000 bearing in mind that last quarter we basically were at an annualized rate of 200,000. Overall, we'd expect to see that coming down to I think around about the 150 mark. Costs to date would certainly be higher than we would normally expect to see because we've been opening up underground from an underground perspective, significant expansion of underground. And in fact, when you look at the tonnage that we moved, we moved significantly more waste than we have ore right now. That will obviously switch as we get into a more balanced production scenario. And then of course, it will switch again because we're actually going to an expansion again. But in the short term, you would see more of a balance. So the longer term, when you look at it, I think our mining costs a bit over $40 processing $25 G and A, bit under $30 that you you'd only see as you get to your 1,000,000 tons per annum and that is you're obviously getting quite a lot of economies of scale in that in those levels. Having said that, some of the initiatives that we're busy with on the mining side, for instance, we're transitioning from bolt and meshing and basically every single cut we do anywhere we bolt and mesh. We don't leave it to a initiative of underground supervisor to determine if it's bolt and meshed. Everything is bolt and meshed and that's part of our safety. We're switching we're transitioning to shot treating. Shot treating provides better, more rapid support and also provides us with some cost benefits as well. The other area that you'll get a lot of benefit with this expansion, of course, is putting in the twin incline and having a high speed tramming system with a 6x6 incline as opposed to the 1 in 1 in 100. Current incline is 5x5, 1 in 7. So it is a haulage wise, far slower haulage, etcetera, etcetera. So there are quite a number of benefits that you get from the expansion that we're looking at. Okay. Thanks, John. That's all the questions I had. The next question comes from David Stewart with Desjardins Securities. Please go ahead. Hi. Thanks, John and David and Justin for hosting the call and well done on a solid quarter. Just a question maybe for David or Justin. I was wondering if you could comment on the application to get listed on the big board. When should we expect that to occur? And I'm also assuming that once that happens, you'll be eligible for GDX inclusion. So do you have a handle on timing and what the demand might look like for that as well? Yes, I can answer that, David. We will be applying for graduation in mid September and looking for graduation near the end of Q4. Yes, I can jump in just on the GDX. So there's been a number of reports from investment banks that have flagged K92 for inclusion for the GDX. Demand estimates that we've seen from those banks range between 11,000,000 to 13,000,000 shares with the measurement date being September 11 and the closing date for that being September 18. So it's certainly something to monitor. There is no guarantee, but it is something that a lot of people are looking at now for us. The next question comes from Andrew Mikitchook with BMO Capital Markets. Please go ahead. Good morning. Congratulations on a good quarter. Lots of questions already answered. John, maybe if you could just give us a little bit of insight as to what we should expect for this ramp up of advance rates on the new, I guess, added or inclined, whatever you want to call it, that you're in a bit of a preparatory phase that the first portion of all of these kinds of ramps and that it always seems to take a while before the crews settle into a more consistent advanced base. So what should we expect over say the balance of this year and where would that get to next year? Okay. Well, in terms of twin and client advance rates, we've budgeted on 100 meters for each of the 2 inclines. We think that's pretty conservative. And so it will take us the rest of this quarter really to set up portal areas and everything else so that we can really start focusing just on taking the cuts. So end of this year, the expectation would be that we'd be sitting around 3 or 400 meters in and each of the two inclines. Going forward next year, we'd be looking for 200 meters per month from incline development on the twin inclines. And then obviously, we're doing a lot of other areas as well. I think our development is currently running without the twin inclines at around 600 meters per month, or lateral development. So overall, you'd be looking at 800, 900 meters of lateral development in a month. And just to make sure I heard that right. So initially starting at something resembling 100 meters per month per heading and exiting this calendar year at something approaching 400 meters on each? Yes. Okay. Thank you. I'll let others jump into more questions. Congratulations on a strong quarter. Thanks, Nigel. The next question comes from Justin Stevens with PI Financial. Please go ahead. Good morning, guys. Thanks for mentioning it, John, because it's actually going to be my first question. I was just curious about that, the 5% purchase right for the NCI. Is there expected consideration that will be coming your way for that? Or is that going to be essentially a carry? There is a consideration that has not been specified at this point in time. We're structuring it as an interest in ML-one hundred and fifty. It's not an interest in the project. It's not an interest in the plant or anything else. It's actually in the ML and we've been very specific on that because it provides a far simpler straightforward system. P and G, one of your issues are who are your communities and how do you deal with them and how do they get involved in your project. Now in our particular case, the focus right now is the communities that were immediately involved in the mine as it stands. But of course, if we start looking at expansions, if we start looking at Maniapi, Karimpe, these other projects, they're quite separate to ML-one hundred and fifty and to Cora. We want to make sure that we keep things compartmentalized, if you like. The added point is the way we set it up is that all of the capital equipment will belong to K92. We're not selling a 5% interest in capital equipment and that will remain to be K92s. So the K92 will effectively effectively the ML will be a joint venture between K92 and the community with their 5% community and Eastern Islands province. The operation will be run by K92 as effectively the manager of the operation and the provider of all of the capital equipment and will recover from the joint venture partners all of their operating costs and the capital costs and obviously some sort of management fee as well. Got it. And then so is there a potential maybe to rather than sort of receiving initial consideration effectively extended as a loan that would get repaid to the 2 through the JV? Absolutely. You can't do it any other way. You have to do it. Okay. Great. That helps a lot there. And just because I think it's just as you mentioned, if that's applied directly to IMO 150, I know you guys are obviously chasing the system to the south, but that will be leaving sort of the mining lease. Is there given the timing of the, I guess, the current life of the mining lease till June 24, what would the thought process be potentially on bringing some more of that ground into a mining lease? Would it be sort of as part of the anticipated renewal of the existing lease as an extension or would it be its own separate lease package? Okay. Well, first off, in terms of the existing mining lease, it's our intent to apply for the renewal next year as part of this whole expansion process. And that's actually been the recommendation of the MRA, the Mineral Resources Authority as to how their recommendation was apply for it as part of your expansion. And there's a logic to that. That is exactly what was done with the Zimbabwe for Simberry, looking at the sulfides expansion. And that's actually what's been done by Hidden Valley, where they're looking at a major cutback on the open pit and a brand new tailing stand. So there's a major capital commitment they put in an application renewal of their mining license last month. And they actually have ML-one hundred and fifty one, so their mining lease is actually up for renewal early 2025, but they put in an application now on the basis that they're looking at a significant capital expenditure to extend the life. So we would go with that same logic. And as I say, that's what the NRA told us we should be doing as well. In terms of looking to the South, under the current mining act, there is no capacity to expand a mining license. So we would have to apply for a new mining license for any new area. Under the proposed new mining act, there is an ability to expand the mining license. However, the timing to bring that new mining act in is still unknown. I mean, it's been in process for over 10 years now. We'd like to see it in sooner rather than later, but it is a process. And of course, things like COVID have certainly added to the complication of getting legislation done. Of course, yes. Great. That's very helpful. Thanks a lot and congrats on a good quarter guys. Thanks, The next question comes from Geordie Mark with Haywood Securities. Please go ahead. Yes, Gabriel. Just a quick question on exploration. You mentioned the potential to maybe ramp up to 12 rigs. Why not sooner, I guess? And if we're thinking about those extra 2 rigs, where are you looking at in particular on those plans? Okay. First off, in terms of the additional rigs, the 2 additional rigs are both in transit right now. We're actually supposed to be here earlier, but COVID-nineteen also impacted Canada and they finished them later and shipped them later. So we're a bit disappointed with that quite frankly. In terms of where they go, as it is, as I mentioned, one of them is earmarked for Blue Lake and the other one will go to either Maniapi, Atacampa, Mati or Corbusat. There are a number of options we're looking at for the 2nd rig. There's also some drilling at Mati, which is probably the first thing that both of them will do, simply because it's right next to the ML. And so it's an easy point to be doing the commissioning of the 2 rigs. Why not go to 12 or more? A couple of things. 1, we're very cognizant of COVID right now And we don't want to be expanding where we're operating and increase the potential of having complications from COVID. So part of what we're looking at is how we manage our exploration in the light of the COVID pandemic. Right now, the exploration people are remote from the site. They are not allowed to come and go into the camp, so that they're kept separate. We have separate camps covering the exploration areas, each of the exploration areas. So there's a camp for Careme, there's a camp at Blue Lake, there's a camp at Kapoor and so the exploration people stay in those areas. So it really comes down to, a, being confident and comfortable in terms of where COVID is And secondly, it's a pretty significant step to go from 3 to 5 on surface and then to go from 5 to 7 is a further step. And so there's a whole process of getting resources, setting up to be able to do that helicopter support for a lot of it, etcetera, etcetera. So about going through process. We had planned, for instance, to have a detailed AeroMag program completed this dry season right now and that was obviously part of our regional work and target generation. And that's been put on hold as clearly we can't bring in the equipment to be doing that in country right now. And so probably that will only be done next year. It's a dry season thing you've got to do if you're not going to do it in the wet season. Did I answer your question, Jordi? Yes. Thanks, mate. So obviously, not a target issue, more of a logistics and sort of risk, I guess, management profile. Okay. Thanks. This concludes the question and answer session. I would like to turn the conference back over to the presenters for any closing remarks. Okay. Well, from my perspective, on behalf of K92, I'd really like to thank you all for making the time to listen to us today. I was going to say this evening, but it's only me this evening. Everyone else is going into their day. I'm finishing mine. We certainly see Q2 as second quarter as being another transformational quarter. It seems to be a word that we use for a lot of things. But given the challenges that are out there, not just for us, but for just about every mining company right now, We're very pleased with the results that we got for the Q2. And certainly, I just like to put on record that from our perspective, the work that was done by our team on-site has been quite outstanding in this last quarter and in this quarter. And the support from government to keep operational has been quite outstanding. So that's it from me. Thank you very much for your time. This concludes today's conference call. You may disconnect your lines. Thank you for participating and have a pleasant day.
