Thank you and best of wishes to everybody from Switzerland. It's a beautiful day here and I want to start by thanking everybody on the operating team at Komoku Kula for having experienced a bump in the road. immediately getting to work on restoring Ivano Mines as the fastest growing and best new major mining company in the world. I also want to thank very much the people in our Chinese office and our partners at Zijin and CITIC, who expedited a major effort to get world-class pumping systems in place on the site already in record time. And we're going to be telling you more about that pumping and our plans for the future imminently. But never have I seen such a great effort by such a diverse group of people responding to a challenge and working rapidly to overcome it. So with that, and without further ado, let's go on to the management team. Thank you.
