Formation Metals Announces Key Appointments and Changes to Board of Directors

16.01.2014  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Jan 16, 2014) - Formation Metals Inc. (TSX:FCO) ("Formation") today announced that the Board of Directors of Formation (the "Board") has reached an agreement, effective January 15, 2014, with Mari-Ann Green, Scott Bending and William G. (Bill) Scales whereby these executives will relinquish their positions as CEO, President, and Executive Vice President, respectively and resign from the Board of Directors.

Management, faced with the collapse of the resource sector in the market, low cobalt prices and low precious metal prices has been restructuring the Company over the past 12 months. The Company has cut costs, downsized, sold non-core assets and eliminated the positions of over 40 personnel. These latest resignations are continuing the efforts of the Company to protect its strong cash position, preserve assets and remain debt free.

The Board acknowledges that this was an extremely difficult decision to make. These individuals have made momentous contributions to the development of Formation since founding the Company more than 25 years ago. Ms. Green has distinguished herself as a talented leader with her integrity, commitment and her ability to inspire. We wish her and her colleagues Scott Bending and Bill Scales well as they transition into a new chapter in their careers.

Mr. Paul Farquharson, previously CFO, has been appointed Interim President and CEO. Mr. Marc Tran, CPA, CGA, B.Comm & B.A., is appointed as CFO. Ms. Green and Messrs. Bending and Scales have agreed to provide consulting services to assist the Company during this transitional phase.
