Mr. Ball has advised that he is willing to join the Board.

He served as Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President of Corporate Development from March 2016 to October 2017. Prior to joining Goldcorp, Mr. Ball served as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Newmont. Over his nineteen years with Newmont, Mr. Ball worked in internal audit, finance, treasury, operations/projects and investor relations before joining the executive team as Chief Financial Officer. Prior to Newmont, Mr. Ball was a manager with PricewaterhouseCoopers in Durban, South Africa. He qualified as a Chartered Accountant from the Institute of Chartered Accountants of South Africa and as a Certified Public Accountant in Colorado.

Mr. Ball currently serves on the Boards of Trevali Corporation (TSX:TV), Columbus Gold Corp. (TSX:CGT) and Allegiant Gold Ltd. (TSX-V:AUAU).

About Lydian International Limited

Lydian is a gold developer focusing on construction and commissioning at its 100%-owned Amulsar Gold Project, located in south-central Armenia. Amulsar will be a large-scale, low-cost operation with production expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2018, with ramp-up continuing into 2019. Gold production is targeted to average approximately 225,000 ounces annually over an initial 10-year mine life.
