PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Copper cathode producer Tiger Resources has appointed Michael Griffiths as CEO and MD on a permanent basis, effective immediately.
Griffiths has been an independent nonexecutive director of the Tiger board since 2012, and has acted as interim CEO for a number of months.
“Having steered the company through some very difficult times in the past eight months in an interim CEO capacity, Griffiths presents as the right candidate for the CEO role and, I’m glad to report, has agreed to remain in the role on a permanent basis,” said Tiger chairperson Mark Connelly.
The company had also appointed Ian Kerr as an independent nonexecutive director, while David Constable, who joined the board in 2011, had resigned as an independent nonexecutive director.
Kerr, a professional engineer with 33 years of experience, including 28 years in the mining industry, was previously the director of mining consultancy Mintrex.
“The board now has a good mix of financial, operational and technical skills and experience whilst at the same time remaining relatively small in size,” Connelly said on Friday.
