The Company also announces that it has been advised that a first instance decision has been made by the Administrative Tribunal in Caldas State, Colombia in the class action proceeding commenced in 2011 by the Society of Public Improvements against the Colombian Ministry of Mines and Energy. The decision temporarily suspends activities in an area that includes the Company's Tolda Fria project. The project is not considered material in any projections for the Company's near and medium term future.
The Tolda Fria project has valid title from the National Mining Agency and holds the required environmental permit from Corpocaldas, the pertinent environmental regulatory agency. The Company and local counsel are reviewing the decision.
