Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - December 24, 2024) - GPM Metals Inc. (TSXV: GPM) ("GPM" or the "Company") Chairman, Dan Noone, on behalf of the Board of Directors, wishes to welcome John Timmons as GPM's new Chief Executive Officer and to our Board of Directors.
Mr. Timmons is a seasoned mineral exploration executive with over 20 years of development stage and operational experience. Mr. Timmons spent 16 years with Guyana Goldfields and was instrumental in the development of the company from exploration to production. More recently, Mr. Timmons was President/CEO of Stone Gold Inc. and later Copper Road Resources Inc.
Prior to commencement of drilling at the end of the wet season in April 2025, Mr. Timmons will be relocating to Australia. Mr. Timmons brings excellent knowledge and experience to the Company, and we have great confidence he will successfully execute the drilling exploration program we have planned for the Walker River Project in 2025.
The Board would also like to thank John Tait for his achievements over his tenure as CEO of GPM and in appreciation of his efforts he will be retaining 500,000 options.
Dan Noone, Chairman of the Board, commented, "We are sorry to see John Tait leave GPM, and he will remain a friend of the company, but as time went on it was clear we needed a CEO based in Australia which John Tait was unable to accommodate."
Mr. Tait commented, "While I will no longer be CEO of GPM, I remain a substantial shareholder and will be closely monitoring the exciting 2025 drill program."
