ozl strengthens the board.

With the announcement of OZL's new board member Barry Levin, it is good to see that OZL are bringing in the right people to do the job required as we move forward.

His 18 years at Rio Tinto identifying and evaluating acquisitions in copper will be invaluable knowing that we are on the lookout for another near term copper project.

As a mining engineer his time at the Northparkes j/v specialising in mechanised block caving will be a huge bonus as we move towards the block caving scenario at Carrapateena.

This move shows to the market that OZL are now more prepared to source appropriate qualified people to shore up our talent pool.

Makes a big difference to that crusty old mob we had before.
