Manitoba Wildfire Update
The Company would like to update the market on the impact of the wildfires in the Lac du Bonnet/Bird River area in southeastern Manitoba. The wildfires have affected many residents and businesses in the area, including Grid Metals. There is currently no public access to the Company's Makwa, Mayville and Donner properties as the fire danger remains a significant factor. The roads to the area remain closed due to the fire danger. The Company would like to thank the tireless efforts of emergency personnel and fire crews for their efforts to contain the fires and preserve infrastructure in the area.
