(Alliance News) - Shares in SolGold PLC rose on Wednesday after appointing Ayten Saridas as its new chief financial officer.
Shares in the developer of copper-gold deposits closed 5.0% higher in London on Wednesday at 26.37 pence.
Australia-based SolGold has been without a permanent CFO since the departure of Priy Jayasuriya in November 2020. At that time, the company appointed Ingo Hofmaier as its interim CFO.
Saridas, who will be assuming her role on June 27, has previously held the position of CFO for ASX-listed Coronado Global Resources.
SolGold said she will bring a "wealth of financial and commercial experience", noting she has experience in raising capital for major projects and in mergers & acquisitions.
Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer Darryl Cuzzubbo said: "Her strategic insights, leadership and experience will greatly assist SolGold to realise its full potential as an organisation that enables Ecuador to supply the copper crucial for a net zero emissions future."
