Red River Resources Limited (ASX:RVR) has confirmed the appointment of a new general manager (GM) for its Thalanga Operations in North Queensland in Randy McMahon.

McMahon will take over from Karl Spaleck, who is moving to Red River’s Hillgrove Gold project in New South Wales as part of its restart strategy for 2020.

Red River managing director Mel Palancian said: “We are pleased to announce the appointment of Randy McMahon as Red River’s new Thalanga GM.

“Randy will be an outstanding GM at Thalanga with his skills, knowledge and experience.
