Their extensive expertise and experience in the energy sector will be invaluable as we communicate with a broader audience. "KAL is entering into a new pivotal phase which requires the right team to ensure excellent execution and communication. KAL is now firmly focused on exploring and developing its thermal coal resources in Kalimantan, Indonesia, one of the world's most prolific coal exporting areas." KAL owns the economic rights to two concessions in East Kalimantan, near the Mahakam River. "We are currently advancing the work undertaken during our initial exploration program, which resulted in a JORC compliant inferred resource of 204 million tonnes of thermal coal. We are conducting additional exploration and other studies, such as aerial topography and transportation and environmental assessments, to determine the economic viability of the concessions. As soon as all studies are completed and, assuming that economic viability is established, KAL plans to begin the exploitation phase. While we still have some way to go to complete this very critical work, we are very excited about the overall project," added Mr. Bloking.
