Our strategy is to build a quality portfolio of near drill-ready to drill-ready exploration projects that can be quickly moved to discovery stage with drilling, i.e. the Project Developer model.
​Our team members under our Lao-based expatriate Australian Chief Geologist, Paul Burrell, have already established exploration facilities in-country allowing us to operate cost-effectively without the overhead of importing equipment and people.
-
We are now looking to broaden that base during a new round of financing in Q4 2022/Q1 2023, looking at raising about US$3 million. As of early December 2022 we have raised already US$550,000.
