Hello everyone and thank you for tuning in for today's live event, a fireside chat with 2 Yukon Explorers. Joining us on the call we have Jordi Mark, CEO of Blue Jay Gold, and Andrew Carne, VP of Corporate Development at Cascadia Minerals. 1 is advancing a near-term high-grade copper gold deposit, the other is reviving a high-grade, past-producing gold-silver system. A few quick housekeeping notes before we begin. As this is a live event, please feel free to submit your questions in the chat. Time permitting, we'll do our best to get to them all.
