The need for a strategic advisor follows continued exploration at the Cesar copper-silver project over the course of the last year. Findings have resulted in major and mid-tier miners becoming interested in the project, with a major copper producer and a second global miner becoming interested in the property. Utilizing an experienced strategic advisor to assist in extracting the most value for shareholders as a result is a necessity for the firm.
