    The TIG group has undertaken to work to finance capital and operating expenditures related to the development of Phase One of Project F, including:

  • To endeavour to commence production in Q4 2016 and to reach 500,000 tonnes of production by 2018;

  • To create at least 100 jobs to support the mining and transportation of coal product;

  • To ensure compliance with the Company's obligations under its geological exploration and mining licences;
