Good morning, everyone.
As you all know, we are here today to continue our study on the rare earth industry in Canada. It's a fascinating topic, and I think we all see the potential of this industry. We are very much looking forward to hearing the witnesses here today.
I understand Mr. Wilson is prepared to present the material that Mr. London was going to present. Before I introduce the witnesses I wanted to mention to the committee members that Mr. Julian has asked for a couple of minutes at the end to discuss the witness list for the cross-country benefits of the oil and gas sector study.
I'll introduce you all first, and then we'll start with Mr. Wilson. We have with us today as individuals Luisa Moreno, senior research analyst, Euro Pacific Canada; Vladimiros Papangelakis, professor, chemical engineering and applied chemistry, University of Toronto; and Steven Wilson, senior vice-president, minerals services, SGS Canada. Welcome to all of you. If Mr. London does get online, he is the chair of the Canadian Rare Earth Elements Network.
We will start the presentations with Mr. Wilson and then you can go ahead in the order that you would like from there.
Go ahead, please, Mr. Wilson.
