Ann: Sunstone appoints Patrick Duffy as Managing Director, page-3

I think its a good move.

Nothing but respect for Mal. Frees his time up to focus on the geo/technical side of things leaving the corporate duties to a seasoned pro with a good pedigree.

Apparently we are not an discovery/exploration company any more either:

Mr Norris said: “I have no doubt that this evolution of Sunstone will significantly increase our ability to drive
shareholder value. We have a highly successful exploration track record over the past few years and these
changes will create the structure to deliver our long-term strategy to become a significant ASX-listed South
American gold and copper company”.

Hopefully this is the catalyst to get SP moving north (Gold breached $2,200 USD & Silver up 3% over night on the fed news) so lots of tail winds.

Just need Duffy to secure some cash now at a reasonable price.
