Mr Netscher has broad-based experience at executive level in the international mining industry, in roles spanning marketing, project and operations management and business development. He is currently the Managing Director of Gindalbie Metals (GBG.AX). His previous experience includes a period as Senior Vice President of Newmont Asia Pacific; Managing Director of Vale Australia; Senior Vice President, Director and COO of PT Inco; President and COO at QNI Pty Ltd (part of the BHP Billiton group); Executive Director of Impala Platinum Limited and Project Director, Business Development and Exploration at Billiton Plc.

Mervyn Greene commented “For some time now the board has been looking at appointing a Perth-based chairman. We are very pleased to have attracted someone of Tim’s calibre in the industry to serve as Deep Yellow Chairman later this year. The recent addition of both Tim and Christophe Urtel to our Board has strengthened it significantly and this change will continue and accelerate that process. In addition our Managing Director, Greg Cochran, has been able to augment and strengthen our senior management team in Namibia. I know that Greg is looking forward to working with Tim, and we believe that these changes will allow DYL to create a strong market position and enhance shareholder value as the nuclear fuels sector responds to increased demand amid a time of significant supply constraint’’.
Tim Netscher said ‘Whilst still facing several challenges, I believe that in the near future the uranium industry’s prospects will begin to improve as nuclear power moves to once again take a prominent place in the world’s energy mix. Despite the difficult market conditions, DYL continues to work towards positioning itself to take advantage of this anticipated change in sentiment and I look forward to being part of leading DYL through this challenging but exciting phase of its development.”
