Appointment of Director
China Goldmines is pleased to announce the appointment of
Jean-Pierre Conrad as a Director. Mr Conrad has been appointed
pending the implementation of an investing policy being put to
shareholders at the forthcoming AGM at which point it is intended
that he will become Chief Executive of the Company. Mr Conrad will
seek election to the Board at the forthcoming annual general
meeting.
Mr Conrad started his career in the banking industry in
Switzerland before becoming responsible for the corporate finance
activities of a European clinical testing group. In 1994 he joined
Marc Rich which became Glencore International thereafter,
responsible for corporate finance activities in the metals and
minerals trading division in Switzerland.. He was appointed chief
financial officer of Xstrata in 1997 which transformed from an
investment vehicle to a diversified natural resource group during
his period in office. Since leaving Xstrata at the end of 2001, he
has pursued private ventures including in the natural resource
sector and consulted for companies in turnaround or special
situations.
Welcoming Mr Conrad to the Board, Robert Adair, Chairman,
commented: "Jean-Pierre brings significant experience in resources,
commodities and corporate finance to China Goldmines. We believe he
has the experience and contacts which will enable the Company to
source good opportunities for investment and growth in the natural
resources sector. We look forward to the opportunity of working
with Jean-Pierre and drawing on his experience as we endeavour to
take the Company forward and create shareholder value. I am excited
by the potential opportunity for growth that we now have."
