STRIKEPOINT GOLD INC. ANNOUNCES APPOINTMENT OF ADRIAN FLEMING TO BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Strikepoint Gold Inc. has appointed Adrian Fleming to the company's board of directors.
Mr. Fleming is a professional geologist with over 40 years of technical and executive experience with exploration- and development-stage mining companies. He was the co-founder and president of Underworld Resources from 2006 to 2010. In 2007, Mr. Fleming, together with colleague Rob McLeod, acquired a Shawn Ryan project with interesting soil geochemistry results. Mr. Fleming led the team which made the discovery and defined the maiden resource of the million-ounce White Gold deposit, located in the White Gold district, Yukon. The project was subsequently acquired by Kinross in 2010 for $138-million.
Mr. Fleming was also involved with gold discoveries and/or developments at Porgera in Papua New Guinea, Big Bell in Western Australia, Gross Rosebel in Suriname and Hope Bay in Nunavut.
Shawn Khunkhun, chief executive officer, stated: "Adrian's vast experience in identifying and prioritizing drill targets has directly led to major gold discoveries throughout the world, including the Yukon. This skill set along with Mr. Fleming's passion and mentoring of the next generation of economic geologists make him a cornerstone component of our strengthening team."
The board of directors would also like to thank Rowland Perkins for his service and role with Strikepoint as a director and wishes him success in future endeavours as he will be stepping down from the board.
