(“Nordmin”) as the Technical Services Provider for the Thunder Bay North Project located 50 km northeast of Thunder Bay, Ontario. For these purposes, the Thunder Bay North Project is the amalgamation of an advanced stage exploration property (the “Current Lake Deposit”) and a delineation-stage asset (the “Escape Lake Project”) (previously described in a press release issued July 15, 2020).
