(" Aterian " or the " Company")
Aterian Plc (LSE: ATN), the critical and strategic metal-focused
exploration and development company, is pleased to announce the
appointment of Mr. Luke Rogers to the position of Chief Operating
Officer ("COO") as of 1 November 2022.
Luke has over 14 years of international mining experience,
primarily focused on base metal projects in developing economies.
Luke holds a Bachelor's Degree in Mining Engineering and a Master's
Degree in Minerals Engineering from the Camborne School of Mines.
He has worked across multiple mining disciplines ranging from
production mine engineering to mineral processing operations.
Most recently Luke was Chief Operating Officer of Trinity
Metals, the largest tin and tungsten producer in East Africa,
overseeing nine mine projects, 4,500 employees and the largest
investment ever in the Rwandan mining sector (Trinity Metals is a
subsidiary of TechMet, a privately owned technology metals mining
company).
Prior to Trinity Metals, Luke was country manager for AMR Gold
in Sierra Leone, leading a team of 26 people and helped develop the
region's Wilkinson Hill Coltan deposit, building a 'Life of Mine'
financial model to establish IRR and NPV data. Luke has had senior
management experience at Chepstow International, one of the largest
mining contractors in Southwest England, and worked with Glencore
in the DRC at the world-class Mutanda Copper-Cobalt mine. As a
mining and processing engineering consultant and manager, Luke
brings significant and relevant experience to Aterian's African
portfolio.
Charles Bray, Chairman of Aterian, commented:
"I am very pleased to announce Luke's appointment to our senior
management team and take this opportunity to welcome him to the
Company, as we enter a new and exciting period for the Company.
The recent acquisition of the copper-silver and base metal
assets in Morocco, together with the move to the Standard List of
the London Stock Exchange will present opportunities in which
Luke's skill set will provide significant added benefit to the
Company. His intimate understanding of Rwanda and its mining sector
will serve us well as we continue evaluating our
tantalum-niobium-tin projects in the south of the country and the
metals trading business. We look forward to Luke putting his
technical expertise to use to prove up our existing assets and
working to support the Company's long-term sustainable
development."
