Former Exploration Manager for Ivanhoe Mines
Mongolia to strengthen Adyton Board
Port Moresby – June 12 2024 – Adyton Resources Corporation (TSX Venture: ADY) (Adyton) is pleased to
announce the appointment of former Friedland exploration manager Dr Chris Wilson as a Non -Executive
Director to the Board. Dr Wilson’s appointment is subject to TSXV approval and fills the va cancy created by
the prior resignation of Mr Anthony Williamson.
Dr Wilson, BSc (Hons), PhD, FAusIMM (CP), FSEG, FGS, is a commercially-driven exploration geologist with
over 30 years of global experience in area selection and prospect generation, generati on of high value
mineral exploration targets, and the design and management of large resource definition drilling programs.
Dr Wilson has worked in over 80 countries, on most commodities and deposit styles. He has specialist
experience with low to intermediate sulphidation epithermal Au-Ag-base metal systems, high sulphidation
Au-Cu systems, and porphyry copper -gold systems and associated breccia- and sharn- hosted
mineralization.
Dr Wilson has extensive project review and target generation experience, with demonstrated ability to
integrate and interrogate complex multi- disciplinary datasets, and rapidly identify and test high value
targets. Dr Wilson has very s trong deposit model knowledge ensuring key controls on mineralization are
placed within the wider context of a projects geological, structural and hydrothermal evolution.
Dr Wilson has proven ability to lead multi-disciplinary and multi-cultural, high talent teams under diverse
cultural and physiographic regimes and is a Qualified Person for JORC and NI 43 -10 compliant reporting
and valuation. Dr Wilson spent 10 years with Ivanhoe Mines (TSX:IVN), including Exploration Manager
for Ivanhoe Mines Mongolia , where he was responsible for an e xploration portfolio of over 11 million
hectares.
Dr Wilson comments, “I am delighted to be joining the Board of Adyton Resources Corporation and
providing oversight of geological exploration of the project portfolio in Papua New Guinea. Following my
PhD I was appointed Lecturer at the University of Papua New Guinea (Port Moresby Campus) which
provided me with a deep understanding of PNG’s geology and varied people and cultures. Adyton has
robust projects with NI43- 101 compliant mineral resource estimates, providing an excellent foundational
value, on which to conduct further exploration”. Dr Wilson further comments, “despite a number of
historical drilling campaigns on Feni Island, most holes were shallow, and many did not penetrate the post-
mineral volcanic cover nor assayed for copper. Adyton is presently reprocessing historical magnetic data,
and reinterpreting historical drill hole assay results, which indicate there are a nu mber of high reward
exploration targets that were never adequately drill tested. This is confirmed by the most recent 5 hole drill
program by Adyton also(see News Release dated December 1, 2021 ) which intersected intervals such as
35.9 m @ 0.3% Cu and 1.1 g/t Au (70.7 to 106.6 m) and 6.4 m @ 5.1% Cu and 1.6 g/t Au (147.7 m to 156.1
m) in hole ADK004. This along with a small number of historic deeper holes indicate both significant gold
and copper exploration upside”.
Adyton Chairman Sinton Spence said “ I am thrilled to have Dr Wilson join the Board, Dr Wilson’s unique
background having lectured in Geology at the University Of PNG along with his experience at Ivanhoe
mines and exposure globally to many deposit types combined with his matter of fact and pragmatic
approach fills an important gap on our Board as we look to build a refreshed Board.
