Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
To start, I want to thank all of the witnesses for being here. It's pretty amazing to see such a diverse panel of expertise, and I wish we had more time with you.
I'm going to focus my questions back to Dr. Eggert. When I was preparing for today, I looked at your background and also at some of the things you mentioned in your opening remarks today. I was very interested in the idea about the Canada-U.S. relationship when it comes to these minerals. Could you elaborate a little more on how you think that could work, specifically in this area?
