James Tuer, Hudson’s President stated: “We are excited to be winding up the construction of our mine, bringing us one step closer to shipping product to our customers and generating cash flow. The execution of the construction phase this year has been a great success and has met all of our expectations from a safety, cost and scheduling perspective.
