"I am honoured to succeed James E. Sinclair as chairman of the board," explains Mr. Rakhit. "I am a believer in the gold resource potential of our host region, the Tanzanian people's ability and the co-operativeness of government -- even more so now, after having recently met government and visited the mine site, local communities, schools and hospitals that have been shaped by TRX Gold's corporate social responsibility initiatives. I am excited and motivated by the company's growth potential, and I strongly believe, that together with my fellow directors and TRX management, the company can become an important gold producer within the African landscape."
