Cornish appoints South African Don Turvey as CEO
Aim- and TSX-V-listed Cornish Metals has announced the appointment of Don Turvey as CEO.
The appointment is intended to be effective from September 1, and is subject to the approval of a UK work visa. Turvey will be relocating from South Africa to Cornwall, where Cornish’s South Crofty tin project is located.
Cornish points out that Turvey is an experienced mining executive with more than 40 years of experience in the sector, including senior management roles in production, project execution, business development, and mineral resource management.
Since 2008, he has been CEO of private, ASX- and Aim-listed mining companies where he has successfully funded and taken new projects and historic mines to production, as well as leading a number of merger and acquisition transactions.
Prior to this, Turvey spent more than 20 years at BHP, in roles including general manager and VP project development where he headed up the project, geological, mineral resource and financial analyst teams.
"On behalf of the board of directors, I am delighted to welcome Don as CEO of Cornish Metals following a competitive search process. I am confident that Don, with his extensive commercial, operations and project execution experience, will capably lead Cornish Metals forward in order to realise the best potential for the company and our stakeholders as we advance South Crofty towards production in 2027,” said chairperson Patrick Anderson.
Turvey is succeeding Ken Armstrong, who acted as interim CEO. Following Turvey's appointment, both Anderson and Armstrong will return to nonexecutive positions.
