International Trade committee  Yes, sure. It's public information. We actually have an agreement under which they will spend a total of $15 million over three years to earn a 50% interest in one of our projects. We have numerous projects in the Athabasca basin and in Quebec. They are looking to enter into fu

International Trade committee  That's a good question. In fact, KEPCO currently has 20 nuclear power plants. They are now looking to expand their technology worldwide, to provide their nuclear power plants to the international community. They're talking to countries like Canada. They're looking at bringing the

International Trade committee  Yes. We're having discussions in Japan and have been approached by groups in China as well. As you know, the rest of the world has embraced nuclear energy in a bigger way than North America. Without any other development of that industry here in North America, demand is huge an

International Trade committee  Yes. That's a very good point. We have the benefit of being small and nimble and having a product that is needed, so those negotiations and discussions will continue. However, any time barriers are removed to free trade it's positive, and will lead to additional contracts being

They very much respect the Canadian business community. When we were there, we

International Trade committee  With regard to Mr. Westcott's point of view, having been in Korea, in Seoul, ten days ago, celebrating with them the signing of our transaction, I got a chance to experience firsthand the spirits that were there. Certainly it would be great to see more Canadian spirits in use the

International Trade committee  I'm not aware, no. I'd have to look into that.

International Trade committee  No, we have not for our international efforts. We have been in the fortunate situation of having the South Koreans discover our projects and our company and come to us to provide us capital to expand our business. But from a Canadian perspective, mining companies like ours do rec

International Trade committee  No, I have not had any other, prior discussions regarding this.

International Trade committee  We have not gotten to that stage right now. We are still an exploration development company. We have a project in which we are hoping to find a uranium resource. But the Koreans have decided to expand their program to secure international sources. To that end, it will help us d

International Trade committee  I wouldn't believe that's the case. Korea generates a significant amount of nuclear energy. They have 20 nuclear power plants now and are building six others as we speak; they have their own reprocessing facilities; they have their own storage facilities; they currently stockpile

International Trade committee  Yes, I can, thank you. Thank you very much for allowing me to join you today. I was invited to this panel just late yesterday afternoon. I apologize; I haven't had a chance to prepare a formal presentation. But I want to share with you and the group there today some anecdotal
