PERTH: Ardiden Limited has appointed experienced geologist and current Chief Executive Officer Rob Longley as Managing Director.
This appointment is consistent with the company’s strategic focus on maximising value from the Company’s gold assets in the Tier 1 Mining jurisdiction of Ontario, Canada.
Rob was appointed Chief Executive Officer of Ardiden on 1 May 2019 and has played a significant role in consolidating the company’s assets, forming alliances with strategic partners in the area, and progressing Ardiden’s gold growth strategy.
Commenting on the leadership changes Ardiden’s Non-Executive Chairman Neil Hackett said: “The Board is delighted to appoint Rob as Managing Director. Since taking the role of CEO, Rob has been the key driver behind Ardiden’s renewed strategy in unlocking value and success at the Pickle Lake Gold Project, which now has a substantial gold resource that Rob and the Ardiden team will be working hard to further develop as activities at site continue to ramp-up. Rob’s appointment to the Ardiden Board comes at a time of renewed focus on this well-known prolific gold mining district in Ontario Canada, as evidenced by AuTECO Minerals’ announcement on 28 January 2020 of the acquisition of up to 80% of the Pickle Crow High Grade Gold project adjacent to Ardiden’s existing gold package.”
