<div><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">The COPO station has been decommissioned due to the property being sold to a new owner.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">The property was formerly owned by the Chilean Army, our partners in the station's operation.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">The monument, a steel mast, still exists but all other equipment was removed on 5 August 2015.</span></div>

<div><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">An updated site log for COPO has been submitted to the IGSCB.</span></div>

<div><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">I expect a few more days of data to be recovered from the receiver : </span></div>
