"Thank you to everyone who voted. It's truly inspiring to see the commitment our shareholders have to our company's success. A special thank you must be extended to our Director, Hugh Oswald and Company Secretary, Brooklyn Reed for their efforts in organising the proxy vote brought forward by former CEO, Christopher Ecclestone.
We are happy that our board has been extended to now include Simon Hobson, a mining engineer with experience in Antimony and critical metals, and Joel Montgomery who is the current CEO of SPMP, the largest Antimony roaster outside of China and responsible for the supply of 20,000 tons of Antimony per year. Their wealth of knowledge and experience that they will no doubt bring to Molten Metals will be of great assistance to ensure the success of our firm. Our board is now balanced between technical and commercial skills, which is imperative in the development of a modern mining company and I look forward to seeing Molten Metals go from strength to strength," commented Molten Metals CEO, Lara Smith.
