 have the distinct pleasure of speaking with both the Chairman and CEO and President of AAPIA, Rare Earths and Uranium, Tom Drivis and Frederick Kozak. How are you both today? Great Tracy. Really good. Thank you Tracy for having us again. So on that note, you've had a number of announcements since the new year. If you don't mind, let's provide our audience with an update starting with an update on the geopolitical factors that may be raising interest in AAPIA, both Rare Earths and Uranium, which are critical materials. Tom, I'm going to start with you there. Can you tell us why people might be more interested in AAPIA at this time? Tracy is a very good question. As you know, the world is having problems, issues with energy right now. There's a shortage of oil and gas. There is a shortage of gas in Europe. The world is looking to going to electrification of vehicles, green energy. AAPIA is part of the solution. They need Rare Earths for the vehicles, for electric vehicles. AAPIA is exploring for that. And Frederick, our president here, can expand a little bit on that. Well, yeah. Thank you Tom. I mean, one thing to note here, Tracy, is that the geopolitical environment, notwithstanding the tragic events ongoing in Europe right now in Ukraine, really hasn't changed in that China still controls about 90% of the Rare Earth industry, for lack of a better word. And a very important point is that today, right now, the world can only supply enough Rare Earth elements to permanent magnets, etc., to meet current demand. So when we're looking at increasing electric vehicle sales and usage by as much as five times talking to the experts by 2030, there is a huge gap in the market for Rare Earths. So Frederick, I don't know if you want to just give us an update on the uranium supply of AAPIA. Well, sure, Tracy. Thanks. So we've actually acquired a new uranium property in Northern Saskatchewan in the Athabasca basin. We call it Otherside. It's a property or part of a property that we owned before. And if you look at the price of uranium right now approaching $60, I think, a pound, it points to a geopolitical situation that Russia being a supplier. We are more optimistic, obviously, about the potential for uranium in the world. And then Tom, maybe you can talk a little bit about our uranium properties. AAPIA has three uranium properties in Northern Saskatchewan around the Athabasca basin. This is our model for those properties. What we're looking for there is near surface, high grade, near infrastructure uranium. As Frederick mentioned, we did acquire another one that is basically towards the center of the basin. And this is, it has a lot of similarities to a lot of huge deposits in the Athabasca basin. That's more like a deeper target for uranium. But in addition to that, AAPIA has the property in Edo Lake, Ontario, which is we have a huge resource of uranium and rare earths. And basically the resources there, we got over 55 million pounds of uranium in supply in 43 on the one resource and about 180 million pounds of rare earths. And with the demand and the increasing in uranium, the prices are going up. And that put AAPIA basically into the uranium picture down the road for supplying uranium or for securing, being a secure source of uranium in a secure place like Canada, Ontario. Well, speaking to that, can you comment earlier in the new year, you made an announcement that you just acquired a new claim block in the Athabasca basin for a large prospective uranium mineral project. Can you talk to us a little bit about that? The the other side property is a large property in, as I mentioned, the center of the north northern part of the Athabasca basin. And it has a lot of similarities. Like we had this property before a few years ago, and we dropped it because the demand for uranium wasn't there. A lot of companies like before us had done a lot of geophysics, a lot of work on this on this property. And there is good indication that this could force a large uranium deposit in, but that property, you know, the target is deeper. So we're going to be looking at that. But in addition to that, AAPIA was preparing to drill our laryngeal property that we drilled twice. And unfortunately, we were delayed with a permit. And we needed an ice road, and we decided to not sort of postpone that drilling for later on, and move our efforts to start our drilling in Alsace Lake. That's the Vereth project. So I don't know if you saw the last news release, but we definitely announced mobilizing our geologists. And if everything works well, by Monday we'll have the first drilling group there at Alsace Lake. And we're going to kick start this exploration program, this drilling program, earlier this year, because last year we did build a year-round camp. And we got two drills on site. And we're sort of, we're going to start in March rather than in June, like we started July last year. So we're going to have a very extensive drilling program. And we're very excited. Okay, so let's talk a little bit about that. Alsace Lake, Frederick Kozak, could you please comment about your two most recent news releases and provide an update? And also, could you just back up just a few steps here and explain to investor-intel audience that may not appreciate how competitive your Rare Earth project is, why it's competitive, why it's compelling, and also what you're planning on doing, just further to what Tom Dryden has just commented on. Thank you. Thanks, Tracy. Well, listen, the thing about Alsace Lake, and we have talked about this, and it's in our corporate presentation on our website, is Alsace Lake so far looks to be one of the best Rare Earth discoveries in the world. We've got on average 16.5% Rare Earth, total Rare Earth oxide within the Monazite. And Monazite, for those of your viewers who know or don't know, is a much better host of the critical Rare Earth elements than are the other sources of Rare Earth in the world. So in that, we've been doing a lot of testing with the Saskatchewan Research Council. And we had one of our news releases came out in February that announced that our initial metallurgical tests on the Rare Earth sample that we had sent to the SRC basically comes out and shows that the preliminary bench scale testing results are comparable to other Rare Earth projects, projects that are producing in the world. So it supports the potential for the Alsace Lake project as a possible Rare Earth supply from Monazite. So with that, we're very excited about getting our, we're still missing some assay results. We're very excited about getting those. We've got an indication that we should have them before the end of March. And with that, we will be able to, we will be able to talk more about our drilling from last year. So looking at this year, though, as Tom has mentioned, we are on the ground in Alsace Lake. We're just, it's 20 below up there right now. We're just getting the camp up and open and operating. But Tom highlighted that we've got drillers coming in. We're going to start drilling as early as Monday. And we've got at least 12,000 meters of diamond drill core planned for this year. A lot of that drilling will again focus on the WRCB area, which is our main, main discovery. But as some of your viewers will know that last year, we found what we call the Western Anomaly, which looks to be massive in terms of high grade mineralization. We've got 27 square kilometers on surface. So we've got a lot of work to do. And with a winterized camp, we talk about 12,000 plus meters of drilling for this year, but it could be significantly more than that. Well, I'd like to thank you both for your update on Appia Rare Earth and Uranium. And I hope you two will join us more often. Thank you both. Thank you, Tracy.
