JADE LEADER APPOINTS MR. ANDREW SHAW, MASTER CARVER
AND AUTHOR OF “JADE LIFE” AS AN ADVISOR.
Calgary, Alberta – Jade Leader Corp. (TSX.V: JADE) (“Jade Leader” or “the Company”) is pleased to
announce the appointment of Mr. Andrew Shaw as an Advisor to the Company , which includes the
establishment of a commissions agreement for sales of material to third parties introduced during the term of
the Advisory position.
Mr. Jean-Pierre Jutras, P.Geol, the President and a director of Jade Leader, stated “ I have known Andrew
since November of 2016, the first year that I competed as a Jade carver in China. As the liai son between the
contingent of invited foreign carvers and the Chinese Jade community, we were all struck by his immense
knowledge of J ade, Jade culture and the Chinese and International markets . Once we reached a certain
threshold of material collected during our latest trenching prog ram in Wyoming, it became eminently clear
that Andrew’s extensive and current knowledge of the industry, its history and its current trends could be a
great asset to Jade Leader. Mr. Shaw visited the project towards the end of the trenching program to see for
himself the progress that we had made, and subsequently has agreed to be involved in an Advisory role as
the Company now moves forward to test and pre-market some of its materials on the way to create valuation
information derived from its trenching program samples.”
