“Clive will be much missed by all at Serabi. It has a been a pleasure to work alongside him and I would like to thank him for his very significant contributions to the business during his tenure. Having been with the Company for over 11 years, Colm Howlin is well qualified to take over as the Company’s CFO and to maintain the necessary level of financial discipline over our operations. I am also very pleased to welcome Marcus Brewster to the management team. Having worked with Troy Resources and TriStar Gold, Marcus brings significant experience of operating in Pará. As we seek to grow the production base and aim to develop other opportunities, Marcus will play a crucial role in the on-going success of Serabi.”
