BEST MOMENTS
"We have other indications of other similar type of targets along that trend, which will be following up in due course."
"We went out looking for about one and a half million dollars and we decided to cut it off at $2 million. It was oversubscribed, which we just closed at the end of November."
"I think we're on the cusp of something bigger happening... We're in a spot right now where that technology is advancing through decarbonisation plans. That brings us back to where these metals come from to make all this stuff happen."
"With nickel sulfides that have grade and in all cases carry energy with it in the form of sulfur, you can have a much lower carbon footprint... When those constraints become visible, it's going to be a step change."
