Analyst Coverage and Marketing:

• On May 10, Canaccord Genuity initiated analyst coverage of Gen III which was followed in late June by a five-day marketing tour through Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto and London (UK).

             Environmental Permitting:

• Stantec Consulting Ltd. was retained to complete an application to Alberta Environment and Parks (“AEP”) for an Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act (“EPEA”) Industrial Approval for the Bowden facility.  Stantec/Gen III have submitted the application and anticipate receipt of the project environmental permit in late Q3 or early Q4/2018.

Site Preparation and Pre-Construction Activities:

• Thurber Engineering have competed a comprehensive soils investigation study and geotechnical report which has been presented to the design team and will form the basis of foundation design.

Company President & COO Gordon Driedger stated, “We are pleased with the FEED study, environmental permitting, feedstock supply sourcing and financing progress made during the most recent quarter.  The project is advancing materially on several fronts simultaneously and is on schedule for completion in late Q2/2019. We are grateful to the dedicated staff of our project partners.”
