This new role is a recognition of his contribution and I look forward to working with him closely in the future, particularly on the Onkoshi projects and others.”
Mr. Drysdale added, “I appreciate the opportunity to lead Antler as the Company continues to explore its current projects and develop its growing exploration portfolio that is geared for discovery. The Company is looking to create a long-term business model that has a varied offering, whilst providing stakeholders with exposure to the potential of discovery and exploration ventures. We are exceptionally well-positioned for growth, and I look forward to building on the strong foundation that Dan and the Antler team have managed to build over the years.”
