Timberline reported a consolidated net loss of $0.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, including exploration expenditures of $35 thousand and a gain on the sale of available-for-sale securities of $100 thousand. Activity during this quarter was primarily focused on data reviews and interpretation in preparation for the anticipated future development of the Company's Talapoosa property.
Timberline's President and CEO, Steve Osterberg, commented, "Our work at Talapoosa continues to provide us with confidence that we control a very prospective asset in a favorable mining and exploration jurisdiction. We are finalizing Talapoosa metallurgical testing programs as we further delineate the exploration opportunities along strike at Talapoosa and on the adjacent Appaloosa structural trend. We are pleased that the prices of precious metals have remained relatively strong, and we believe that development capital will be available for district-scale gold projects such as Talapoosa."
