Richard Williams, Executive Chairman of Bunker Hill, thanked Mr. Thompson for his contributions to the transaction with Silver47 and his engagement with the Board during preparations for a potential future US listing. The Governance and Nominations Committee of the Board has commenced a search for an additional two independent directors and expects to make an appointment in the coming months. The Company noted there is no guarantee that its shares will be listed on a U.S. national exchange.
