Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 6, 2025) - Barksdale Resources Corp. (TSXV:
BRO) (OTCQX: BRKCF) ("Barksdale" or the "Company") announces that Rick Trotman, effective
February 5, 2025, has resigned from his position as President and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company. William Wulftange, who currently serves as a member of the Company's board of directors
("Board"), has been appointed Chief Executive Officer of the Company and will assume, on an interim
basis, all related duties. William has served the Company in his role as Director since 2020 and will
focus on completing the earn-in for Barksdale's flagship asset, the Sunnyside Project, in the coming
months.
Mr. Wulftange is a seasoned exploration geologist with a track record of success in discovering and
developing world-class mines including the Paradise Peak Mine in Nevada, El Peñón mine in Chile, and
the Cerro Negro Mine in Argentina. Serving as SVP of Global Exploration for Yamana Gold, his key
responsibilities included reserve replacement and resource growth at all operating and exploration
assets until his retirement in 2018. During his 40-year career, he evaluated numerous acquisition
opportunities in North and South America, making several successful recommendations. William served
as President of the Society of Economic Geologists Foundation and continues to volunteer his time to
the SEGF.
Darren Blasutti, Chairman of the Board, commented, "We extend our sincere gratitude to Rick for his
years leading the Company's management team and focus on advancing the Sunnyside Project. The
Board looks forward to supporting William in his dual capacity moving forward while a search is
undertaken for a suitable candidate to fill the CEO role in the upcoming months."
In his new dual role, William stated, "I am fully prepared to take on the responsibility of interim CEO and
lead the Company through our earn-in phase. This pivotal stage is essential for securing value for our
investors and positioning Barksdale for sustained growth in the future."
