Joanna brings extensive financial, governance and mining industry experience, including as a senior executive and director of public mining companies. She joins us at a time when we will be transitioning from the development stage in respect of our Kurmuk Mine to production and generation of cash flows which will accelerate our status as a more financially mature public mining company. Her perspective will complement the skills of our existing directors and further strengthen the Board’s financial, governance and mining industry expertise and support our public commitments relating to Board refreshment initiatives.”

In order to allow for Joanna’s appointment given the size limits of the Board, Daniel Racine has stepped down from the Board having provided strong support to the Company as we pursued our development plans and transitioned from a smaller producing and development stage company to one with greater financial depth. Mr. Racine will continue as an emeritus director and in that capacity, he will provide ongoing support and advice to the Board and help ensure continuity during this period of transition.
