/CNW/ - Mistango River Resources Inc. ("Mistango" or the "Company")
(CSE: MIS) is very pleased to welcome a new key person to Mistango and its broader group, Dr.
Keith Benn
. Dr. Benn joins both Mistango and Orefinders as its Vice President of Exploration where
his focus will be the companies'
Kirkland Lake
and Shining Tree portfolios.
Dr. Benn holds a PhD in structural geology as well as a post doctoral degree in the structure and
tectonics of Precambrian greenstone belts. Most recently Keith was Director of Structural Geology
for Goldcorp Inc., and he has extensive and relevant experience in the Abitibi region as well as in
other Precambrian greenstone regions in
Canada
,
Africa
and
South America
. Keith will be
collaborating with
Charles Beaudry
who will remain a key member of Orefinders and Mistango
exploration brain trust.
"The appointment of Dr. Benn marks the next phase of our pivot towards exploration, discovery, and
our drill programs. Mr. Beaudry remains very much with our team, however Keith will focus on the
Kirkland Lake
and Shining Tree assets. We felt this move is necessary as we increase our on site
exploration and as we expect our respective drill campaigns to begin in the near term," said
Stephen
Stewart
on behalf of Mistango.
Charles Beaudry
, director of both companies also commented: "With the expansion of our
exploration budgets in the
Kirkland Lake
and Shining Tree mining camps, it is important that our
efforts be narrowly focused on these projects for both Mistango and Orefinders and that requires a
dedicated VP Exploration for these companies. Dr. Benn is a very appropriate candidate to lead us
to discovery success."
