APPOINTMENT OF TECHNICAL DIRECTOR AND PROJECT DEVELOPMENT MANAGER
Elysium Resources Limited (“Elysium” or "Company") (ASX:EYM), advises that it has enhanced its senior management team. The proposed production at Lloyds Mine, near Burraga, NSW is anticipated to provide a robust cash flow over 5+ years which will be invested in un-locking the significant upside potential at its Australian and Indonesian tenements. In order to execute its strategy of moving into production at the Lloyds Mine and to facilitate the ambitious exploration programmes in the adjoining tenements in NSW, WA and at its South Malang project, the following appointments have been made.
Board Appointment
Mr Neb Zurkic has been appointed to the Board as Technical Director of Elysium after serving as Chief Technical Advisor to the board. Mr Zurkic is a graduate of RMIT University, with a Bachelor of Applied Science in Geology and holds a Masters in Mineral and Energy Economics from Macquarie University. He is a Member of the Australian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (AusIMM) and a Registered Professional Geoscientist member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists. Mr Zurkic has held a variety of senior management and executive level positions at both small and large mineral resource companies with interests in Australia, South America, SE Asia and Africa. His 24 year career began with Perseverance Corporation Ltd, where Neb was instrumental in developing the sulphide resource at the Fosterville Gold Project which is now Victoria's largest gold producer. In 1999 Mr Zurkic worked on the commissioning of the massive Batu Hijau copper-gold project for Newmont Mining Corporation. With the Indonesian project reaching steady state Mr Zurkic moved to Newmont’s Yanacocha Gold Project in Peru in 2004; in 2005, Yanacocha was the largest single site gold mine in the world with a reported 3.3Moz produced. Mr Zurkic established his consultancy business in 2007 where he continued to provide support to a number of Newmont's operations and advanced exploration projects. Providing services to the smaller resource companies lead to Mr Zurkic joining the board of Republic Gold Ltd (ASX:RAU) in late 2007 where he directed the technical teams in Queensland and NSW, and successfully managed the completion of the feasibility study for the 1.2Moz Amayapampa Gold Project in Bolivia.
