On August 3, 2016, the Second Judicial District Court of Washoe County, Nevada issued an oral ruling for summary judgment awarding a drilling company, National EWP, Inc. (“National”), US$2.3 million in its lawsuit against the Company’s 70% indirectly owned subsidiary Mineral Ridge Gold, LLC (“MRG”), the operator of the Mineral Ridge gold operation. The Company and its legal advisors strongly disagree with both the Court’s legal conclusions and its factual findings, and it is currently evaluating its options to contest the ruling and stay execution of the judgement, once entered. (See Contingencies).
