President and CEO, Bradley Rourke commented “With an exercise rate of 98% our shareholders have resoundingly endorsed our vision for Scottie and its inherent capacity for continued success. Fall 2020 aims to be an exciting time for the Company as we receive and release assays from our active drill program. As of today, we have completed 23 holes out of a planned 45 holes.”
On July 6, 2020 Scottie’s share price closed at $0.385, after being at or above $0.29 during the previous 10 consecutive trading days.
