ATHA Energy Corp (CSE:SASK, OTCQB:SASKF) announced that it has appointed Cliff Revering as vice president of exploration and Karina Tyne as director of corporate affairs.
The company, which holds a significant exploration package in the uranium-rich Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan, said that Revering brings almost three decades worth of experience in the mining sector, including in grassroots exploration, project evaluation development and mine operations, to the position.
He has extensive uranium experience across North America, Australia and Africa, it added. Revering has worked on nearly every major uranium deposit in Canada, having worked as a qualified person related to mineral resources at uranium projects in the Athabasca Basin and as chief geologist at Cameco’s Cigar Lake Uranium Mine located in the Basin during the first five years of the mine’s operations.
Tyne, meanwhile, brings 16 years of experience in the mining sector to the position of director of corporate affairs, including in Indigenous engagement, corporate management, and exploration and mine geology working at uranium deposits, including Cameco’s McArthur River in the Athabasca Basin.
She has previously led community and Indigenous engagement at NexGen Energy, successfully negotiating and executing collaborative agreements with several Indigenous nations, ATHA highlighted.
“ATHA is very privileged to welcome Mr. Revering and Ms. Tyne to the ATHA team at what we believe is an exciting inflection point for the company during a time of unprecedented macroeconomic strength in the uranium market,” ATHA CEO Troy Boisjoli said in a statement.
At ATHA, our people are one of the primary cornerstones of our execution strategy, and the addition of Mr. Revering and Ms. Tyne – who have been a part of some of the most significant uranium assets in the world – equips our team with a unique depth of expertise that further positions the Company to unlock value across our exciting foundation of assets.”
The company noted that its former Vice President of Exploration Doug Adams would be transitioning into the role of Director of Basin Exploration and will continue to lead exploration work.
ATHA is a mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral resource properties.
