Appointment of Technical Advisor to the Board

The Board of Geopacific Resources Ltd ( Geopacific or the Company ; ASX: GPR) is pleased to advise the appointment of Mr Sim Lau as a Technical Advisor to the Board. Mr Lau has over 37 years of experience in civil engineering and project management of mining projects in Papua New Guinea, Australia, Indonesia and Mongolia. Mr Lau’s most recent appointment was as the Project Director for the development of the Gruyere Gold Project.

Mr Lau is working with the senior management of Geopacific to develop a detailed Integrated Project Management Schedule and Project Execution Plans identifying key early work streams, interdependencies, execution deliverables and contractual strategies to de-risk the Woodlark Gold Project build program. Geopacific continues its recruitment program of key specialist roles to bolster the Woodlark Gold Project owner’s team to ensure a successful project delivery.

The Chairman Mr Ian Clyne stated:

“Geopacific is working extremely hard to resolve the local community and regulator concerns in Papua New Guinea regarding the initial phase of the Woodlark Island village relocation program.

The team at Geopacific with input and guidance from Sim Lau and myself are challenging every aspect of our work performance, identifying what we have done well, acknowledging our short comings and accelerating our recruitment program to address any skill gaps.

As we move forward towards full construction, Geopacific will have significantly improved our project planning and execution capabilities.

This is a great project that can be delivered in the near term. It will still require immense efforts from the team at Geopacific and understanding and support from the Government of Papua New Guinea. We are fully committed to delivering the Woodlark Gold Project that will benefit all stakeholders – including shareholders, local residents and the people of Papua New Guinea.”
