That's interesting. The NTM announcement about Mr Eshuys says this...

'More recently, he was the Managing Director and CEO of St Barbara limited from 2004 to 2009. During this time Mr Eshuys was instrumental in substantially increasing the resources and reserves at the Sons of Gwalia mine and its redevelopment'.

On the basis of the ASX announcement, Ed Eshuys mining & corporate credentials give the appearance of a suitable fit for a company like NTM, especially in the context of aggressive exploration hopes for the Redcliffe Gold project.

However, I started wondering what the corporate flavour was (bitter / sweet / bitter-sweet) surrounding Ed Eshuys departure from St Barbara (SBM) in 2009. The below article might offer a few interesting perspectives for NTM shareholders (you might need to use your mouse scroll wheel to read the full article)...

I think some of the standout words in the article are 'St Barbara raised $120 million through a rights issue that surprised and disappointed the market', as well as, 'uncovered a multi million-dollar accounting error that affected working capital'.

Ed Eshuys Cap Raise. Hmmm.

All IMO.
