Speaker 1: Aranjin recently entered into a JV agreement with a sister company, and that has meant some really great things for you, now being the CEO of both companies, but also for the Pure Asset profile. Can you tell us more about why it benefits Aranjin to enter into this agreement? And when can the market expect results from the Bahi-Ulu Speaker 2: Copper and Nickel discovery? Absolutely. Aranjin Resources, as mentioned, I am the chief Speaker 2: executive of Aranjin Resources as well. Aranjin entered into a joint venture reciprocal mining rights agreement with Ion Energy, the goal of which was to expand Aranjin's reach by adding an additional 110, 000 hectares of highly prospective land to explore. Speaker 2: Mongolia is a nation of Speaker 2: 3 and a half million people, 1000000 and a half square kilometers, of which only 3% has been explored. Yet we know that Oyutolgoi, Speaker 2: the Rio Tinto project in Mongolia, is the 3rd largest copper gold deposit in the world. Adding 110, 000 hectares for Aranjin will enable the company to have a larger piece of land or a larger hectare to look for copper in that country. Speaker 2: Aranjin today currently controls the Sharga license as well as the Bayun-Under Speaker 2: license, both of which are extremely promising and will have detailed exploration Speaker 2: done on them over the course of this summer and into the fall.

Speaker 1: There are so many headlines about copper being the new gold. How do you feel about Arunjan's value proposition in Mongolia? You know, with, or you told, Goy, the 3rd largest copper gold depos...
