ST GEORGE BOOSTS TECHNICAL TEAM

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • St George has engaged Charles Wilkinson, former General Manager Exploration at Western Areas, as a Technical Consultant

  • Mr Wilkinson will play a key role in formulating next stage development strategies for St George’s nickel sulphide projects

ST GEORGE’S TECHNICAL TEAM – A TRACK RECORD OF DISCOVERING AND DEVELOPING PROJECTS

St George Mining Limited (ASX: SGQ ) (‘St George Mining’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce Mr Charles Wilkinson has joined the Company’s technical team – further boosting the team’s industry-leading credentials in the discovery and development of nickel sulphide deposits.

Mr Wilkinson has over 32 years’ experience as a geologist in the mining industry. He worked with WMC Resources for 16 years, holding various senior exploration and operational positions including Exploration Manager - Nickel Exploration Australia, and Geology Manager Hill 50 Gold Mine.

After five years as the initial Managing Director of Northern Star Resources Ltd, Mr Wilkinson joined Western Areas Limited in 2008 as General Manager Exploration. During his time at Western Areas, that company developed the Spotted Quoll deposit, significantly increased its resource inventory and became Australia’s No. 1 independent nickel sulphide producer.

St George Mining Executive Chairman, John Prineas said:

“The Mt Alexander Project – with high grade nickel-copper-cobalt-PGE mineralisation discovered over a strike length of 3.5km – is one of the most exciting projects in Western Australia.

“We are delighted that Charles Wilkinson has joined our technical team. His considerable expertise in nickel sulphide exploration and mine development will be invaluable as we move forward at Mt Alexander, and also as we continue to test nickel sulphide targets at our East Laverton Project.”

ABOUT THE MT ALEXANDER PROJECT

The Mt Alexander Project is located 120km south-southwest of the Agnew-Wiluna belt which hosts numerous world class nickel deposits. The Project comprises four granted exploration licences – E29/638, E29/548, E29/962 and E29/954.

The Cathedrals, Stricklands and Investigators nickel-copper-cobalt-PGE discoveries are located on E29/638, which is held in joint venture by Western Areas Limited (25%) and St George (75%). St George is the Manager of the Project with Western Areas retaining a 25% non-contributing interest in the Project (in regard to E29/638 only) until there is a decision to mine.
