"We are pleased to have confirmed the full ownership of the project, which is located in the prolific Rouyn-Noranda mining camp.

Luc Lessard, Falco's President and CEO, commented: "We are excited about reaching this major milestone and look forward to aggressively pursuing the development of the project for all stakeholders."
