ASX Release 1 August 2016
DIRECTOR RETIREMENT FROM THE BOARD OF HIGHFIELD RESOURCES
The Board of Highfield Resources (ASX:HFR) (“the Company”) wishes to advise the market of the retirement of Mr Pedro Rodriguez as a director of the Company effective 31 July 2016. Mr Rodriguez has retired for personal reasons but has committed to continue to be involved in the Company´s permitting process for its flagship Muga Potash Mine in Spain.
Importantly, the Company will continue to retain Mr Rodriguez on a consultancy agreement, to provide services as required, through to 31 December 2016. This arrangement will assist in a seamless transition of Mr Peter Albert, the Company’s new Managing Director, who commences employment on 1 September 2016 based in Pamplona, Spain.
Mr Rodriguez has been an Executive Director since October 2012 and was the Company’s second full time employee. He was responsible for discovering the assets in 2011 on behalf of Spanish company Geoalcali SL (now 100% owned by the Company). Together with the Company’s Chairman, Mr Derek Carter, Mr Rodriguez helped effect the sale of the assets to Highfield Resources Ltd having developed the assets over an 18 month period from March 2011. In February 2013, he established the Company’s offices in Pamplona, Spain and during the ensuing three years oversaw the growth of the Company from two to fifty employees. He leaves the Board with Highfield Resources Ltd well positioned to commence construction of its flagship Muga Potash Mine as its first step in its goal to become a significant global potash producer.
Mr Carter commented; “We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Pedro Rodriguez who worked tirelessly over the past five years to position the Company to become a substantial global potash producer”.
The Company is working towards the appointment of an in-country Spanish non-executive Director in a continued effort to complement the skills of the Board.
