Mr. Obradovich was also the co-founder of Canadian Royalties Inc., which discovered and developed the Raglan south nickel belt. Mr. Obradovich acquired most of the Matachewan gold camp and, through a reverse takeover of Young-Davidson Mines Ltd., upgraded and doubled the resource which was subsequently acquired by Northgate Minerals in 2005. In 2011, Mr. Obradovich was appointed to the board of Dalradian Resources Inc. and he was appointed chairman in 2012. Dalradian is currently developing the mesothermal high-grade Curraghhinalt gold deposit in Northern Ireland.

Mr. Gibson, who was appointed to the board on Dec. 16, 2014, has more than 30 years of mining industry experience in Canada, the United States and Australia. He was president and CEO of Trelawney Mining and Exploration during the discovery and advancement of the Cote Lake South gold deposit near Timmins, Ont., and the subsequent acquisition of that company by Iamgold Corp. in June, 2012. Mr. Gibson is most recently CEO of San Gold Corp., and president and CEO of Kerr Mines Inc., a director of Mag Copper Ltd. and a director of SGX Resources. He previously held the position of president and CEO of Northern Gold, which raised $28-million in mid-2012 during tight market conditions. During his career, Mr. Gibson was mine manager at Yilgarn Star gold mine in Australia, Copper Mines of Tasmania and the Chester gold project in Timmins, Ont. He has been a contract manager, foreman and miner at various contractor mining companies, including JS Redpath and Dynatec Mining Ltd.

The board sincerely appreciates the prior efforts of each of Dr. Elena Clarici and David McMillan, in their respective roles as interim chief executive officer and president of the company, in moving the company positively forward during this time of transition and reorganization.
