TSRMF
TORONTO, Nov. 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ - Treasury Metals
Inc. (TSX: TML) ("Treasury" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce the appointment of Jeremy Wyeth to the position of President and
CEO effective December 7, 2020. Mr.
Wyeth replaces Greg Ferron who will
be transitioning to a consulting role effective immediately.
Mr. Wyeth brings more than 35 years of diverse international
experience in the mining industry to this role. Most recently, Mr.
Wyeth was Operations Director at a large engineering company, where
he led the Oakville office with a
strong focus on both local and international projects. During his
tenure, he built a strong team that grew the business, seeing the
office more than double in size in the last few years and with
continued growth planned into the first quarter of 2021. Mr.
Wyeth started his career with De Beers, and worked on mines around
the world in Canada, Russia, Brazil and South
Africa. With De Beers, he moved to Canada to lead the development, construction,
commissioning and ramp up of the Victor Diamond Mine in
Northern Ontario. He took the
Victor project from pre-feasibility study to nameplate capacity.
The Victor Project had a capital budget of $1 billion and under Mr. Wyeth's leadership, it
was completed 9 months ahead of schedule and under budget.
"On behalf of the board of directors, I would like to welcome
Jeremy to Treasury Metals," said Bill
Fisher, Treasury Chairman. "Jeremy's depth and breadth of
experience, and his track record of mine-building on time and on
budget, make him the ideal candidate to lead Treasury through its
next phase of growth as we advance the Goldlund and Goliath
Projects in Northwestern Ontario.
Not only is he an experienced mine builder but he is also a
successful team builder with an entrepreneurial spirit."
Mr. Wyeth stated: "I am excited to be joining Treasury at this
exciting period in its evolution and will be squarely focused on
advancing the Goliath and Goldlund Projects. I look forward to
working with key stakeholders and the Treasury team as we advance
these projects through studies and ultimately a construction
decision. One of my greatest career highlights was the successful
development of the Victor mine, and I look forward to doing it
again."
"We would also like to extend our gratitude to Greg Ferron for his leadership, hard work and
dedication to Treasury in various roles culminating in his tenure
as CEO. The Board wishes Greg all the best in his future
endeavours," added Mr. Fisher.
Mr. Ferron announced his intention to step down earlier this
year and will continue to act as an advisor to the Company to help
ensure a smooth transition for the incoming CEO.
Mr. Wyeth will start as the Company's President and CEO on
December 7. Treasury will nominate
Mr. Wyeth for election to the Board of Directors at the company's
next Annual General Meeting.
