Directorate Change
Goldplat, the AIM listed gold producer, with international gold recovery operations located in South
Africa and Ghana, announces that Matthew Robinson, non-executive Chairman,
has informed Goldplat of his intention to resign as a director of the Company
but that he intends to remain in his role until the next AGM to allow
reasonable time for Goldplat to make appropriate alternative arrangements and
ensure a smooth transition.
Commenting on his intended resignation, Matthew Robinson said:
"Since my appointment as a director and Chairman at the 2016 Annual General
Meeting, Goldplat has undertaken a transformation of strategy which has now
been completed. The Group is now profitable and well financed, it has been
returning cash to shareholders through a share buyback programme and it is at
the forefront of ESG standards amongst its peers.
"Management have many excellent initiatives for taking the Group forward and
this provides a solid platform for future shareholder returns. I have much
enjoyed working with my colleagues in South Africa and Ghana and I wish the
enterprise well."
Goldplat will undertake a review of its governance requirements, including
board composition and the balance of independent non-executive directors, and
update the market accordingly in due course.
