Such statements include statements as to the potential of the Cerro Jumil property, the commencement of commercial production at Cerro Jumil, the corporate development of Esperanza Resources Corp., the ability to finance further exploration, permit drilling and other exploration work, and the availability of drill rigs.
The forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, including the closing of the Offering, the use of proceeds, ability to obtain a receipt for the prospectus, as well as those relating to exploration and bringing properties into production.
