Getting their ducks in a row!!!Lupaka Gold Realigns its Board Members View PDF VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, August 25, 2016 - Lupaka Gold Corp ("Lupaka Gold" or the "Company") (TSXV:LPK, FRA:LQP) is making changes to the composition of its Board of Directors (the "Board") to better reflect the production profile of its future mining operations. Consequently, the Company is pleased to announce the appointment of Lucio Pareja to its Board. Lucio brings to the Board his extensive experience in the development and ongoing operations of producing underground and open pit mines in Peru. Lucio has been involved in mining from an early age. Coming from an established Peruvian mining family, Lucio obtained Masters and PhD degrees in mining engineering from Queens University in Ontario, Canada. He has extensive mining experience, his responsibilities having ranged from individual project construction and operation to the CEO of one of Peru's largest mining companies. He is currently a Director of Mining Engineering at UTEC, a new Peruvian engineering and technology university and team leader in charge of developing the mining engineering program. Gordon Ellis, President and CEO commented, "The appointment of Lucio fills a significant operational void on our Board and will help considerably as we move into production at Invicta. We are extremely fortunate to have someone of Lucio's mining experience and knowledge join our Board." Simultaneous to Lucio's appointment, the Board has accepted the resignation of director Jaime Pinto. Jaime is currently experiencing a considerable increase in his work-load as he strengthens and consolidates his law firm in Lima.
