(Alliance News) - SolGold PLC has made three new board appointments, it announced Monday, including two existing employees.
Jason Ward has been appointed as executive director of project management, having most recently been head of exploration at SolGold. He has been with the company since 2006.
Also joining the board is Head of Communications Anna Legge, who has been at SolGold since 2013.
Lastly, Liam Twigger has joined as a non-executive director. He is currently managing director of investment bank and corporate advisory firm PCF Capital Group, based in Perth, Western Australia.
SolGold Chair Brian Moller said: "I am delighted to welcome Anna, Jason and Liam to the board. Between them, they have broad technical strategic and financial expertise and will bring new skills to the board, whilst also strengthening its independence, alignment with, and visibility to, management and diversity."
"These appointments reflect the company's ambition, priorities and vision as its flagship initial project Alpala emerges as one of the world's preeminent copper gold projects, and Ecuador develops into a leading sustainable mining nation," he continued.
"The appointments reflect SolGold's commitment to liaison with all levels of Ecuadorean stakeholders as it embarks on the definition of a portfolio of projects, and not just Alpala."
Shares were 2.3% lower on Monday at a price of 27.70 pence each.
As well as the flagship Alpala prospect on the Cascabel project, SolGold owns 12 "priority" projects throughout Ecuador.
At one of these, Sharug, SolGold last week announced a new mineralised field discovery in the northern part of the project.
