The Company has received the resignation of Mr David Gower, Non-executive Director of the Company based in Toronto, Canada.

Mr Gower joined AGR as Chairman in December 2013 and has provided his geological, business building and Brazil experience to the board and management team during many moments of success. He was also heavily responsible for recapitalizing the company in 2014/15 which has ultimately allowed it to be reinvigorated into its current form.

Quote by Executive Director – Mr David Shearwood

I’ve been fortunate to have met with David many times over the last few years when in Toronto, Canada, and more recently here on the Aguia board and I can attest to his very high standing in the international mining community, notably across base metals and Brazil. His geological career has been extraordinary and his exploration and development success frequent. I know many in the team will miss his valuable input, wisdom and mentoring. I thank him for his many years of service to the Company and wish him tremendous success with his other business interests.”
