Newcore Gold, a mining company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange, has announced the appointment of experienced finance professional Mal Karwowska as vice president of corporate development and investor relations.
Karwowska joins from First Mining Gold where she served as vice president of corporate development. She previously worked as an investment manager at Pacific Road Capital, business development director at Oxygen Capital and senior investment research analyst at Liberty Metals and Mining, a subsidiary of Liberty Mutual Insurance.
Prior to those roles, Karwowska spent five years at National Bank Financial where she worked in investment banking.
‘We are very excited to welcome Mal to our executive team,’ says Luke Alexander, president and CEO of Newcore, in a statement.
‘She brings a wealth of capital markets and investor relations experience to the Newcore team. Her experience, industry contacts and knowledge of the mining sector will contribute significantly to Newcore’s goal of creating significant value for our shareholders.’
Karwowska arrives at Newcore Gold during a year of change for the miner, which owns the Enchi Gold project in Ghana.
The company named Alexander as its new CEO in May and completed a $3 mn private placement the following month. In August it officially changed its name from Pinecrest Resources to Newcore Gold.
