“Tony’s knowledge of the Mulga Rock Project is second to none and he brings a wealth of experience in delivering major projects from DFS through to financing and construction.”
Vimy’s goal for 2022 is to complete a bankable feasibility study for the Mulga Rock Project, along with project financing activities and the continuation of ongoing early works.
Planning has also begun on a resource extension drilling program at the Angulari deposit located in the Alligator River Project.
Dr Chamberlain will step into his new role from February 2022, and will hand over the reins as Non-Executive Director once a replacement has been found.
