Management shake-up at Ausgold
Gold development company AusGold, which owns the 3.04-million-ounce Katanning gold project (KGP) in Western Australia, on Monday announced a number of changes to its board and senior management.
Company MD and CEO Matthew Greentree resigned to pursue other opportunities. No replacement was named.
Chemical engineer Mark Mitchell has joined from Merdeka Battery Material as COO. AusGold pointed out that Mitchell had extensive gold operations experience, including senior roles with Newcrest as GM of Telfer and GM of Hidden Valley. In addition, he has held senior roles with Mount Gibson, Mineral Resources and Ambatovy Nickel.
Further, Paul Weedon was appointed nonexecutive director. He is currently senior VP of exploration of Fortuna Mining. Before that, he was VP of exploration of Roxgold.
“I worked with Paul at Roxgold, and he is a highly experienced and accomplished mining industry professional who will add great value to our business,” said executive chairperson John Dorward.
He also welcomed Mitchell to Ausgold’s senior executive team. Dorward noted that he had worked with Mitchell at MPI Mines and Leviathan Resources. “He will add tremendous depth and breadth to our project development and operational capability as we progress the KGP through the feasibility study and into development and operations.”
Dorward also thanked Greentree for his contribution to the company over a number of years.
