Mr Brown has more than 24 years’ mining industry experience, most recently serving as chief mine geologist with Brightstar Resources. He has previously held senior operational and technical leadership roles with Westgold Resources, OceanaGold, Gold Fields, BHP and Evolution Mining.
CEO, Daniel Tuffin, said Mr Brown brings experience in new mine start-ups, operational readiness and technical services leadership.
Mr Tuffin added that the appointee’s practical expertise is well suited to the next stage of Crawford’s development, with Mr Brown working closely with the company’s management team to coordinate project development, operational readiness and broader business activities as Crawford advances toward production.
“As Crawford continues to advance toward production, we are focused on building the right team to successfully deliver the project,” Mr Tuffin told shareholders.
“Jamie brings extensive experience in new mine start-ups, operational readiness and leading technical teams, together with a practical understanding of what it takes to bring a new mine into production.
“This appointment is another important step for Cavalier as we continue building the company around Crawford, and I look forward to working with Jamie as we move into the next stage of development.”
Located just 20 km east of Leonora, Crawford is the centrepiece of Cavalier’s strategy to become the next gold producer in the region.
The project hosts a high-grade, near-surface gold resource with a total JORC (2012) Mineral Resource Estimate of 117,800 ounces of gold at 1.7 grams per tonne (g/t).
The company has already completed key technical studies and environmental surveys and is now focused on advancing toward a stage one open pit operation. This is a straightforward, low-footprint development opportunity that could deliver early cash flow and underpin future growth.
CVR is steady at 23.0¢. Mkt cap $19.58M.
