Appointment of Non-Executive Director - Philip Crutchfield

Black Cat Syndicate Ltd (“Black Cat”) is pleased to announce that Philip Crutchfield has been appointed as an independent non-executive director of Black Cat.

Philip is a prominent and well-respected barrister specialising in commercial law. Since 2015, Philip was chairman of highly successful financial services company Zip Co Limited (ASX:Z1P) until his resignation on 2 March 2021. Philip is currently chairman of share trading platform Superhero Holdings Pty Ltd, a director of minerals explorer Encounter Resources Limited (ASX:ENR) and a director of recruitment facilitator Applyflow Limited (ASX:AFW).

Philip is also a long standing and 4th largest shareholder in Black Cat. Gareth Solly, Philip and I have toured the Kal East Gold Project and Philip has a sound understanding of the business and is passionate about the opportunities ahead.

We welcome Philip to our team and we look forward to his contribution to driving Black Cat forward.”
