Black Iron’s management is continuing to advance discussions with Ukraine’s government, albeit at a slower than normal pace due to the challenges of reaching officials during this time of war, to secure land held by Ministry of Defence and permit renewals to ready the Shymanivske Iron Ore Project (the “Project”) for a quick restart upon there being peace in Ukraine. Management has been very proactive in supporting the local community of Kryviy Rih where the Project is located and this work was recently formally recognized by the Head of the Defence Council & Head of the Military Administration of Kryviy Rih, Oleksandr Vilkul.

While Black Iron waits for peace in Ukraine to advance the flagship Project, management has been actively reviewing complementary projects to generate shareholder value.
