As mining advances to deeper levels, the Shaft will complement underground truck haulage by providing an additional means of moving ore and waste to surface at much lower costs while reducing haulage distances and improving operational flexibility. While underground trucks will continue to play an important role throughout the Mine, the Shaft is expected to improve operating efficiency and contribute to lower operating costs and all-in sustaining costs over time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Phase One has successfully demonstrated an initial hoisting capability of approximately 200 tpd, and the Company will continue advancing the remaining infrastructure upgrades before increasing the Shaft\u2019s hoisting capacity. Planned work includes upgrades to the hoisting system intended to maximize the long-term efficiency, reliability and capacity of the Shaft.<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;border-collapse: collapse;width:100%;border-collapse:collapse\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: top\">\n<p><strong>Stage<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: top\">\n<p><strong>Target<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: top\">\n<p><strong>Expected Hoisting Capacity<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: top\">\n<p><strong>Key Activities<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: middle\">Phase One<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: middle\">Completed<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: middle\">~200 tpd<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: middle\">Initial material hoisting capability established.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: middle\">Phase Two<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: middle\">H2 2027<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: middle\">~700 tpd<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: middle\">Hoist and skip upgrades.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: middle\">Phase Three<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: middle\">H2 2028<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: middle\">~2,000 tpd<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-top: solid black 1pt;border-right: solid black 1pt;border-bottom: solid black 1pt;border-left: solid black 1pt;vertical-align: middle;text-align: left;padding-left: 10.0px;vertical-align: middle\">Steady state production shaft configuration supporting long-term mining from deeper levels.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p align=\"justify\"><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><strong>FIGURE 1.<\/strong> Madsen Mine Shaft Location and Underground Development<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><strong>Background<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Historically, the Madsen Shaft served as the Mine&#8217;s primary material haulage system for approximately five decades, providing access to mining operations as deep as Level 26 which is the bottom of the Shaft.
