The Company will seek to proceed to the next level of its exploration phase which will inter alia include a more detailed shipping study, hydrographic surveying, port infrastructure analysis as well as ways to further improve future logistical solutions. Continued exploration is now being planned for 2013 to further explore the known high grade thermal coal deposits and continue to explore for metallurgical coal deposits.
Braam Jonker, Chief Executive Officer and President of Canada Coal stated that: "We are encouraged by the findings of the Enfotec report and are excited to have confirmed the presence of high grade thermal coal with low sulphur and ash in our Ellesmere Island license areas. We are now planning a more detailed logistics study as well as a follow up to our successful 2012 exploration program. We will continue to consult with local communities and relevant regulatory authorities and communicate on a transparent basis with all stakeholders." Mr. Jonker further states, "Canada Coal is currently examining the potential for thermal coal on its arctic coal licenses as a solution for the current energy challenges in Nunavut. As part of this process, the Company will evaluate various fuel power generation technologies including coal to liquids (CTL) and coal water slurry (CWS)."
