Asa East has been appointed as Cambria Gold Mines Inc.'s vice-president, exploration, United States. His primary responsibility will be to advance Cambria's Mt. Margaret copper-gold porphyry project, located in Washington. As outlined within the April 22, 2026, news release, the company is considering spinning out Mt. Margaret into a new U.S.-focused listed entity in the near future.

"Asa is an accomplished exploration geologist with strong project management skills and experienced in advancing projects within North America across a range of mineral deposit types, including porphyry deposits. Joining Cambria from Barrick, he held a critical leadership role for the recent expansion of their giant Fourmile deposit," said Rob McLeod, president and chief executive officer for Cambria. "On behalf of our company and shareholders, we welcome the first member of our American management team that will be focused on advancing our significant copper-gold porphyry asset."

Mr. East brings a multidisciplinary background spanning all stages of mineral exploration, including project generation, resource and reserve growth, project development, evaluations, and corporate strategy. His experience covers major mineral provinces across the North American Cordillera, Western Africa, and the Far East Russian gold districts.

Over the past five years, Mr. East has held a regional leadership role at Barrick, where he directed exploration activities across the United States, including all stages of exploration and growth at Nevada Gold Mines. Prior, he spent 11 years with Kinross Gold Corp. in a range of technical and leadership positions globally. Throughout his tenure at both organizations, he played a key role in advanced stage project development, resource growth initiatives and generative exploration programs that significantly extended mine life across multiple operations, including the recent advancement of Barrick's giant Fourmile gold project.

Earlier in his career, Mr. East was part of the discovery team at Underworld Resources Inc., contributing to the identification of the Golden Saddle resource, which was subsequently acquired by Kinross in 2010. He is a graduate in geology from the University of Illinois.
