![AEX Gold Inc. Update on Operations at Nalunaq](https://www.goldseiten.de/media/goldseiten-news.jpg)
Since the start of the crisis in March 2020, AEX has engaged diligently with various specialists from the medical services, occupational health and safety, insurances and legal sectors as well as with the Greenlandic authorities to implement Standard Operating Procedures ("SOPs") which aim to minimize the risks of Covid19 contamination for all stakeholders, and in line with industry best practice.
The Corporation will continue to have a collaborative and proactive approach with the Greenlandic government to monitor the evolution of the crisis and has developed contingency plans to adjust for any new development in a flexible and efficient manner without materially impacting the Corporation's future plans or its assessment of the economic viability of its projects.
AEX intends to submit its Field Application documents to the Greenlandic Authorities in early July for authorization ahead of mobilizing personnel, which is expected to occur around the end of July
Eldur Olafsson, CEO of AEX Gold, comments:
"We are encouraged by the authorisation we have received from the Greenlandic Covid Commission and we look forward to welcoming back our employees and resuming the development of Nalunaq and carrying out exploration activities. We continue to work closely with the Greenland government to ensure we are following all of the guidelines in place to protect our local communities and personnel."
Stock Option Awards
The Corporation also announces that it has granted incentive stock options ("Options") to directors, officers and consultants of AEX to acquire an aggregate of 2,195,000 common shares at $0.70 per share, with an expiry date of December 31, 2026.
