 Today, I have the pleasure of speaking with George Putnam of Scandium International. How are you today, George? I'm great. Thank you. Thanks. And George, I was just reading an article by Dr. Luke Duchain. He was describing you as the world's most advanced pre-mining Scandium undertaking. And all of our investors out there interested in manganese, cobalt, lithium in the electric vehicle market, I don't think they appreciate how important that Scandium is to this particular sector. Maybe you could start by introducing some of our audience that may not be Scandium experts to Scandium. Sure, Tracy. We are increasingly thinking of Scandium as a tech metal, and it features in everywhere in the transportation world as a way to build a better limited amount of light and lightweight anything in the transportation business. We bring up electric vehicles, and of course, everything about an electric vehicle is extending range and performance in those vehicles. And a better aluminum alloy, a lighter, more effective aluminum alloy, would it be a range extender just as would be a better battery technology? Anything you lift off the ground, you want a better alloy to do it with. So it certainly figures in the aerospace business as well. And speaking of lift off, George, let's talk about what happened to your stock last week, up over 50% on these research and development incentive tax credits. Tell us a little bit more about this. Sure. The Australians do a very nice tax rebate if you spend R&D money on new technologies, and of course Scandium is new enough to qualify in that regard. So while we have been investing a fair number of elements of our project on both on environmental fronts and also on flow sheet design work, we were able to receive a nice grant back a little bit less than $500,000 US, a little more than 700 Canadian. So speaking of congratulations, in addition to this tax credit, you recently received a granting of a ministerial development consent awarded by the New South Wales Australian Minister of Planning. Now, if I recall, this is a major milestone that you've been working forward to for quite a while. Can you tell us more about this? It is a major milestone. We're very proud to have achieved this. In order to go to mine in Australia, you need a mine lease, and it's a two-step process. The first step is the bigger step of the two. And that is to get this ministerial grant from planning an environment on a development consent. Now, this thing is based on our environmental impact statement. It's based on public exhibition, and it basically is the state of New South Wales looking at all the environmental and social impacts of this project and deciding that they want this project to go forward. This is a project they want to see built in their state. The second piece of this, of course, is a mining lease, and that goes to a different minister in trade and industry, and that's where we are now. And we're patiently waiting for the granting of that mine lease, and that's really the primary permit that we need to begin construction of the project. So if I understand this properly, this is like the green light for a project to go from exploration to really prove that you're serious about development. Is that correct? That's absolutely right. This is a very big green light in a series of lights. Speaking of milestones and positive green light flags, I think your announcement about Dr. Nigel Ricketts was really significant when I read his bio. This is a very small sector, and I think everybody in the industry understands that. Can you tell us a little bit more about him and your team overall, because that should definitely instill confidence with shareholders? Sure. Nigel was a great addition to the team. Nigel spent 10 years at the CSIRO, which is a scientific think tank group that's a quasi-government group in Australia. So he's got great background. He's actually a metallurgist, but he's got good business skills, he understands marketing, he understands the next marketing challenge that we have. So he's a great addition to the team, both on flow sheet work and also working on marketing in Australia and in Asia. We've got folks working for us in China and in Taiwan. We've got, of course, Alcerico at Kingston in Ontario working with us in Canada. I am very involved in the marketing aspects, which is really front and center what we're doing now. We've got some people helping us in Europe as well. So we're covering a number of areas, and that's really the focus of the business right now is while we wait for this mining lease, we're focused on optics. So George, one of many reasons I've always enjoyed working with Scandium International is you're always telling us shareholders what we should expect next. It's really exciting. So what should we expect, say, the next quarter or two? Sure. Well, we've talked about the mining lease. We've already anxiously await that. When the minister puts a pen to paper, we'll have that final piece. We're also talking with a number of potential customers about optic agreements, and I hope to be able to talk about those when we have something signed. We don't talk about it until we're done, and we're working to get done in that space. With those two things done, it's then time to get very serious about construction and financing discussions. We'll have done all the work we need to do to sit in front of financiers and raise $100 million U.S. to build this project. Well, George, definitely look forward to the next announcement, and thank you so much for joining us today. Always a pleasure to talk to you, Tracy, thanks.
