The owner of the local Eagle River Mine has a new boss.
Wesdome Gold Mines has announced the appointment of Anthea Bath as President and Chief Executive Officer - the dual role's been open since Duncan Middlemiss suddenly resigned in January, after nearly six years.
Bath has over 20 years experience in the global mining industry, most recently as Chief Operating Officer at Ero Copper, responsible for its four mines in Brazil, helping build it from a junior mining company to an international miner.
She'll start with Wesdome July 1st - Board Chair Warwick Morley-Jepson will continue on as interim CEO until then, and will then resume his role as Independent Board Chair.
