Caracal Gold plc, the gold producer with operations in East Africa, announced the appointment of Mr Riaan Lombard as General Manager of the Kilimapesa Gold Operations in Kenya and Mr Paul Reeves as Chief Financial Officer (‘CFO’) of Caracal Gold. Both appointments are effective from 1 February 2022.
Share Talk spoke with Jason Brewer, Commercial Director of the company who states they are ecstatic about the appointments and knowledge and experience they bring to the team. As the company looks to expand, these new appointments will benefit the company during the growth process.
These appointments validated what we are trying to achieve and are a great sign of what we are building for the future.
What can we expect for the company in 2022, you are going to see a lot of news, growth strategy, increased resources, new listing, shareholders are not going to be short of news over the next few months.
Chief executive of Caracal Gold Plc, Robbie McCrae, said: “These two key appointments will help bolster the Caracal Gold team not only on the ground at our producing Kilimapesa gold mine as we advance it to the next phase of its expansion but also at our corporate headquarters.
“Riaan’s impressive array of management experience across a variety of mining projects across Africa, including at renowned gold producers such as IAMGOLD and AngloGold Ashanti, means he is ideally placed to spearhead advancement of gold mining operations at Kilimapesa and our expansion into East Africa – two core pillars of Caracal’s expansion strategy.
“In addition, Paul’s wealth of experience in financial management across large and small cap miners, including tier one West African gold producer Endeavour Mining, as well as at TSX-listed Thor Exploration, means he is more than qualified to lead Caracal’s financial division amid its exciting expansion.
“We welcome our new appointees to the team and look forward to more successes in 2022 following our stellar performance last year.”
