Hi Ag,

Please find in red my reply:

Thank you for that clarification, Bernard, but I'm afraid it hasn't clarified much.

You are lucky that I have some free time because the Christmas break is about to arrive because answering questions about pieces of information that are in the public domain and in our financial statements is not really a high priority for me…

In your reply you say HPQ has "no intention of developing our own exploration properties " . What exploration properties does HPQ own?   You can’t develop something you don’t own, you have to acquire it first.

While poster 007 has already answered the question about the exploration properties, can I ask you a question, during your DD, have you ever bothered to read our financial statement?  Because the information was there...

Is the quartz supplier BGF? NO, HPQ spun out its gold assets to BGF, and we kept the quartz assets… Another public information that is been out there for at least 2 years…

What is the quantity of quartz being supplied? We have not divulged that information because it is not material, so I will not be divulging it on a BB

Could you pls also reply to Endzone's 2 questions. Done

Oh, and by the way, it's been a very long time now, but you still haven't replied to my question about the extremely large number of stock options slated to be given to yourself and the Directors.  I was waiting for the actual distribution of the incitive option before replying to your question… so I will be doing that also soon.

Many thanks for your prompt reply, Bernard.

And if this is going to be the last NR before Christmas, then merry Christmas and best wishes for a very happy and prosperous new year 2022

Merry Christmas and best wishes for a very happy and prosperous new year 2022 to you also
