Happy Creek Minerals Ltd. has appointed Walter Segsworth as chair of the board of directors.
Mr. Segsworth has over 40 years of experience in mining throughout Canada and overseas, and has served as a senior officer of several mining companies, including Westmin Resources, where he was president and chief executive officer, and Homestake Mining Company, where he was president and chief operating officer. Mr. Segsworth is currently lead independent director of Pan American Silver and a director of Sabina Gold & Silver Corp. Mr. Segsworth is past chairman of the Mining Association of British Columbia and the Mining Association of Canada, and was named British Columbia's mining person of the year in 1996.
Mr. Segsworth stated: "I am very pleased to accept a more prominent role with Happy Creek.

I look forward to contributing that knowledge to the development of this exciting discovery."
