There are a lot of positive vibes surrounding Axiom at the moment for them to be appointing a "key" EM.
If Ryan was not feeling confident in the future of Axiom, I doubt we'd by hiring Key roles such as this one, Drilling Supervisors and tendering for a Civil Works contract....and all within the next week or so.
Definitely the heat is intensifying and its starting to get rather hot in the kitchen now.
