NEW ENERGY METALS ANNOUNCES THE APPOINTMENT OF
DR. DARRYL LINDSAY TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
NR19-08 June 20, 2019
Vancouver, B.C. – New Energy Metals Corp. ("New Energy Metals " or the " Company")
(TSX.V:ENRG) (OTC:NEMCF) is pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Darryl Lindsay to
the board of directors of the Company. Dr. Lindsay replaces Stefan Schauss, who has resigned as
a director. The Company wishes to thank Stefan Schauss for his contributions to the board.
Dr. Lindsay, P.Geo., has over 25 years experience in exploratio n, project development, and mine
geology, focused on copper and gold deposits in Latin America, specifically in Chile, Ecuador and
Colombia. Currently managing a metals business development initiative within SQM (BCS:SQM-
A, SQM-B and NYSE:SQM), he has negotiated and closed over 16 exploration option agreements
over the last 4 years that have generated greenfields exploration efforts in an area over 5000 km2,
incorporating areas of new discoveries. He participated in the negotiations of the first exploitation
contract negotiated in Ecuador for the Mirador-Mirador Norte co pper cluster and has moved
several exploration projects fr om exploration stages to study s tages. Dr. Lindsay is based out of
Santiago, Chile and fluent in Spanish.
“I am extremely pleased to welcome Dr. Lindsay to the board of directors,” commented Cesar
Lopez, President and CEO. “Dr. Lindsay brings refined negotiati on, solid technical skills and a
long history of experience working on projects in Latin America , both of which will benefit New
Energy Metals as we move forward.”
“Although Chile has been considered a mature exploration market, Mr. Lopéz and the New Energy
team, recognizing that historical exploration work focused only on specific deposit styles at limited
depths, is moving forward today identifying exploration opportunities in known metallogenic belts
where previous drilling was potentially too shallow, avoided covered areas, or projects have yet to
be consolidated from local owners. It will be exciting to parti cipate with New Energy as the
company positions itself in the copper and energy metals explor ation space in Chile.” quote from
Darryl Lindsay.
