Adriatic Metals PLC
("Adriatic Metals" or the "Company")
MANAGEMENT UPDATE
Adriatic Metals
PLC (ASX: ADT, LSE:ADT1,
OTCQX:ADMLF)
announces the following management
changes.
As the Company transitions from
developer to a producing mining operation, Mike Norris, Chief
Financial Officer, has resigned to pursue other opportunities.
Michael Horner, Head of Business Development, has been appointed
interim-CFO. Michael joined Adriatic in 2022 and brings over 10
years of progressive mining industry experience across M&A,
capital markets, finance and operations.
Paul Cronin, AdriaticÕs Managing
Director and CEO, commented:
"On behalf of the Board I would like
to extend my gratitude to Mike Norris for his contributions to
Adriatic over the past two years and wish him well for his future
endeavours. Mike joined the team at the commencement of the
construction of the Vares Silver Operation, and through solid
fiscal discipline, successfully navigated that pivotal period to
bring the project to completion, largely on time and on budget,
despite substantial macro headwinds.
We welcome Michael Horner to the
role of interim-CFO. Michael brings considerable experience in
corporate finance and will lead Adriatic through its next phase as
a producer, working to lower our cost of capital, and execute on
new growth opportunities.
As the Company transitions to mining
owner operator over the coming months, the management team will
focus on increasing underground development, enhancing operational
efficiencies, and bringing the Operations to nameplate production
in Q4 2024.Ò
