Matthew Hesh woke early the next morning, the jungle's humidity already weighing heavy in the air. Outside the makeshift command center, the camp was buzzing with activity. Inspectors, engineers, and laborers prepared for another full day of surveying and drilling. Soldiers patrolled the perimeter with vigilance, ensuring no surprises from the local resistance groups still lurking in the region.
Amber entered with a clipboard stacked with new reports. "Morning," she said, placing the documents on his desk. "The seismic tests came back. Jenkins and the others confirmed several prime drilling spots along Cerro Negro."
Matthew glanced at the highlighted areas on the map. "Good. This will give us a head start on extraction. Are the construction crews en route?"
