Eclipse Metals Ltd (ASX:EPM) has strengthened its board with uranium and Northern Territory expertise through the appointment of Pedro Kastellorizos as an independent non-executive director effective July 1, 2020.
Kastellorizos, an experienced non-executive director with a Bachelor of Science degree, has served on the boards of numerous ASX and UK Listed entities including Genesis Resources Ltd, Batavia Mining Limited and Regency Mines PLC.
Northern Territory focus
In the Northern Territory Kastellorizos was senior exploration geologist and underground geologist with Burnside Operations Pty Ltd as well as Northern Gold NL and Afmeco Mining & Exploration Pty Ltd (uranium exploration in Arnhem Land).
He has also worked with the NT Geological Survey with an emphasis on the Arnhem Land region.
His knowledge of uranium unconformity style deposits is of great value to Eclipse, as the main mineralisation style targeted in West Arnhem Land within highly prospective exploration licences held and applied for by the company.
His knowledge of the Northern Territory, together with his local network and contacts will also be advantageous in developing the Devil’s Elbow uranium, gold and palladium project which will be his primary focus.
Valuable contribution
Elipse believes Kastellorizos will make a valuable contribution to the board.
His experience and broad exploration, mining and production knowledge will complement the board’s existing skills as the company seeks to unlock the significant potential of Devil’s Elbow project in the Northern Territory.
