Board changes at Sub-Sahara Resources
Sub-Sahara Resource NL (ASX:SBS) advises that two of the company's long-serving non-executive directors,
HD (David) Kennedy and Des Foynes, have retired, effective today.
Sub-Sahara chairman David Riekie said Mr Kennedy had been a significant supporter of the company since
his appointment to the board in 1996. He had been largely responsible for the company’s current interests in
Eritrea and Tanzania.
Mr Foynes was appointed to the board in 2001 as an independent director and had also been instrumental in
the development of the company’s now significant exploration portfolio in Tanzania, Mr Riekie said.
"Both Mr Kennedy and Mr Foynes made a major contribution to the company and allowed it to develop a
highly-regarded suite of joint venture interests, listed investments and exploration opportunities," Mr Riekie
said.
"The board joins me in extending its sincere thanks and gratitude for the assistance they have provided in
compiling such an enviable portfolio of projects."
Barry Bolitho will now join the board of Sub-Sahara effective 1st March.
Mr Bolitho joins the board as an independent, non-executive director. Mr Bolitho is a tertiary-qualified chemist
and metallurgist and has significant experience with ASX-listed resource entities.
"With more than 28 years of operational, project and corporate experience, the board expects his skills will
provide significant benefits to the company," Mr Riekie said.
Mr Riekie said the board considered Sub-Sahara to be well resourced, with the high-calibre personnel and
projects to make the next phase of its development a success.
For and on behalf of the board
