Tombill Mines Appoints Dave Laudrum as New Exploration General Manager

Mr. Laudrum is a Canadian Professional Geologist with over 30 years of experience on a wide range of mine production and advanced exploration projects with junior and senior mining companies. He has held roles including Project Manager, Chief Mine Geologist and Exploration Manager for a variety of mining companies.

Early in his career Dave worked as project geologist on several drilling and mapping projects located in the Beardmore-Geraldton mining camp. Mr. Laudrum is a professional geologist registered in Ontario and British Columbia. Prior to joining Tombill, Dave was the Technical Services and Mineral Resource Manager at Barrick Gold's Hemlo Mine in Marathon, Ontario.

Dave Laudrum commented: "I am pleased to be joining Tombill at this exciting time in its history. The Tombill claims are surrounded by the claims of Greenstone Gold Mines which host their Hardrock project. The F-Zone defined on the Hardrock project has now been conclusively shown to extend onto the Tombill claims and the company's current focus is on defining the extent of that mineralization."

Adam Horne, CEO, commented: "To add someone of Dave's geological experience and leadership calibre speaks volumes about Tombill and its exploration project; and we are grateful he has joined our team. We hope to provide more surface and drilling resource information during the months of September and October."
