Not to try and match your knowledge on the folk at AVB K, I just copy and past this little bit from the web site about our Managing Director. I am allowed to do this because both Tony and I are West Country men and this gives me special dispensation.


Mr Anthony Polglase Managing Director With 30 years multi-disciplined mining experience across 10 different countries, Mr Polglase is qualified in mechanical and electrical engineering with an honours degree in Metallurgy from the Camborne School of Mines, UK. Mr Polglase has acquired detailed knowledge relating the development and operation of gold, copper, lead, zinc and tin projects and has either been responsible for or closely involved with the commissioning of more than seven mining projects. Previous employers include Iberian Resources, Ivernia Corp, Rio Tinto, TVX and Ashanti Goldfields. Project management including critical evaluation, implementation and commissioning are Mr Polglase's strengths. Mr Polglase has a demonstrated ability of successfully bringing projects on line in the most challenging of environments including former Soviet Union countries. Mr Polglase is fluent in Portuguese.

I am also a fully paid up member of the West Country Wurzels and if you wonder just how we sound in that part of the old dart here's a nice Thursday night clip, even the guys in Brazil may get a chuckle out of this:-
