Ivanhoe Mines Ltd.

Thank you for standing by. This is the conference operator. Welcome to the Ivanhoe Mines Q3 2021 Financial Results Conference Call. As a reminder, all participants are in listen-only mode and the conference is being recorded. After the presentation, management will be addressing questions sent in advance. Webcast participants also have the opportunity to type in their questions via the webcast. I would now like to turn the conference over to Bill Treneman, Vice President, Investor Relations. Please go ahead.

Thank you, Operator. It is my great pleasure to welcome you to Ivanhoe Mines' first ever quarterly earnings call. Today's call will feature a short presentation and brief overview from members of our senior management team. The presentation is available for viewing via the webcast. It is also available on our website at www.ivanhomines.com. Today's call will end with a question and answer session. You can submit a question at any time using the Q&A box on the webcast page. Before we begin, I would like to remind everyone that today's event will contain forward-looking statements. Details of the forward-looking statements are contained in our third quarter MD&A and news release, both of which were issued earlier today and available on our website or on CDAR. I will now turn the call over to our founder and co-chairman, Robert Friedland, for a few introductory comments. Please go ahead, Robert.

Thank you, Bill. For those of you joining this call from all over the world, I'm sitting in Singapore. It's late at night here, and I welcome all of you to this call on this important occasion for the thousands of people that have contributed to the development of Ivano Mines. The profits that we're announcing today and the initiation of commercial production is not in an individual mine, but in a mining district. This strata-bound, basin-scale copper system is the largest untested copper system in the world. So it's a very momentous occasion to announce that the first phase concentrator is at a schedule, under budget, and in production. We have members of our senior management team here. We'll be happy to take questions, and we'd remind you that we've been working for over 25 years, not only on this project, but our two other Tier 1 projects, Kapushi and Platte Reef, which we will also be touching on in this presentation. So with that introduction, I'll turn this over to Marna, our president, who's going to take you through the quarter-third results and beyond. Thank you.
