VANCOUVER, March 15, 2023 - A.I.S. Resources Ltd. (TSX.V: AIS, OTCQB: AISSF) (the "Company" or "AIS") is pleased to announce the appointment of Andrew Neale as a director of the Company.
Andrew is a Canadian engineer who has been involved in all aspects of the mining industry since the late 80s. Starting his career in Canada with Falconbridge and Noranda, Andrew joined PT Freeport Indonesia in 1993, completing his career with Freeport as VP-Technical Services in 2005 with wide ranging responsibilities for the Grasberg open pit and underground mines, including engineering and construction. Andrew also led the Freeport team that exposed the Bre-X (Busang) gold fraud. Andrew has worked extensively in Canada, Central and South America, and South-East Asia in various roles, ranging from CEO and COO positions with various public and private companies, through to Project Management and various international technical & financial consulting roles.
Martyn Element stated, "I can't say enough about how pleased I am to have a man of the quality of Andrew Neale join our board. I met Andrew over a decade ago, when he was running a highly successful mining company Hemco in Nicaragua processing ore mined by over 5,000 licensed artisanal miners which was bought out for $100 Million by a Columbian investment group. We are excited to welcome Mr. Neale to AIS's board and look forward to the depth of skills and experience he will contribute to the Company. With our future aspirations for AIS I could not think of a better addition to the Company at this time."
