President and CEO, John-Mark Staude, stated: “We are pleased with the progress of our Prospect Generator business and excited at the prospects for a new discovery and further value creation and portfolio strengthening in 2017. The Thor, Glor and Clemente projects will all deliver partner funded activity, with results from at least two drill programs in the year ahead. We will layout our goals early in 2017 and have the team in place pushing for transformational mineral discoveries. Riverside is in a much better place entering 2017 than a year ago and we are keen to capitalize on the momentum with several catalysts early in 2017.”
