Val-d'Or

Steller, they're engineers.

They're based in Val d'Or as well as Quebec City.

very good engineers.

They built a lot of deposits in the district.

Thompson already owned the license for that...

Thompson already owned the license for the station at Val d'Or, and a second French-speaking station seems sound policy.

Okay, said Thompson.

We'll go in as partners.

It's a very high pressure tournament.

I mean, to get to the final, we went to triple overtime in the semifinals against Val d'Or.

I still think it's the longest.

It's got the record for the longest game in Memorial Cup history.

Any of the 18 teams could've done the same thing with Ryan Czudinski, but Taylor was, you know, two-

Well, Val-d'Or had Teddy Mutron.

Yeah.

Gatineau had Bogunicki.

So it's, um, it's, it's tough to accomplish a feat like that, um, especially where, with where we're playing.

Uh, you know, 75% of your season is gonna be played against Moncton, Halifax, St. John, Newfoundland, and don't count out, you know, a young, hardworking Charlottetown team.

Plus you're still gonna play Quebec twice, you know, like, they gotta play Val-d'Or twice.

Like, they get...

And I'll throw this out here because I've published it.

But one of the most extensive alteration envelopes around the mines in Val d'Or, Kirkland Lake, Timmins, Red Lake, is carbonate.

Calcium carbonate, iron carbonate, ferro and dolomite.

And carbon has a unique feature in that it's got multiple isotopes out there.

And what it does, in addition to just bringing access to us, as we build our mine, reducing costs, increasing efficiencies, it also unlocks the potential for the leverage to the rest of the district.

Now, this property package, much like any other tier one mining camp like Timmins or Val d'Or or MTV or Nevada Goldfields, you don't necessarily need to build a mine beside every deposit you find.

You have the infrastructure in place that will allow you to now truck those to one of the facilities in the area.

And fortunately, due to the nature of mineralization, our deposits are sulfide-based.

Go take the 117.

Just take it anywhere from St. Jerome to Val d'Or.

That's me going over the 117.

Yeah, and

And then you look

at a team like Val D'Or in the Western Conference, he's probably just going to be like Milhouse throwing the Frisbee to himself at the park.

Yeah.

Anybody want to play? Yeah.
