Good morning, good afternoon or good evening, depending on where the world you’re signing in from today. I noted to the speakers, every continent is well represented in our audience except Antarctica. If somebody does want to log in from one of those science stations, that would be cool. I’m thrilled to be joined today by the CEO of Contango Ore, Rick Van Nieuwenhuyse; and the CEO of Dolly Varden Silver, Shawn Khunkhun. Gentlemen, how are you today?
Rick Van Nieuwenhuyse
President, CEO & Director
Doing good.
Shawn Khunkhun
President, CEO & Director
Doing very, very good. Thanks for having us, Romeo.

Great. So we’re here to chat obviously about this morning’s big news. Two companies are intending to merge. I know it’s a very big crowd in the audience today. I’d like to thank everybody for joining, but I also want to let you guys know how today is going to work. First, Rick and Shawn are going to go over a deck outlining the proposed merger, then I’ve got some questions for them. Then we have a couple of select questions from analysts who are joining us today, but then this is an open forum. So there’s a chat button on the bottom right of the screen where you can ask questions at any point during today’s event. I’ll try to get to as many as I can, and I will be combining questions that are similar. So you don’t get yours asked exactly. It might be covered by another one that’s phrased similarly.
