Current directors Tom Obradovich, Brent Gilchrist, Terry Harbort, Jonathan Rubenstein and Andres Tinajero will not be standing for re-election. These changes to the board of directors will bring more diversity to the Sable board, as well as strong Latin American, ESG and technical experience, which are key to supporting Sable’s ongoing exploration strategy in the Americas.
Dr. Ruben Padilla, President and CEO of Sable stated: “The Company wishes to thank the directors that are not standing for re-election for their contributions to the Company and to wish them the best in their future endeavors. The addition of the new director nominees will bring a good balance between business, legal, corporate responsibility and technical knowledge and expertise to the board. Mary’s impressive mix of technical knowledge and corporate expertise, extensive network, and experience in international business development will undoubtedly bring invaluable insights to our team. Andrés’ understanding of legal processes, community relations and permitting requirements for successful mineral exploration and development will be a tremendous asset to the Company. Robert brings strong expertise backed by years of exploring and discovering ore deposits, and funding successful exploration companies in different countries of the Americas. We believe that these nominees, along with myself and Barry Quiroz, will strengthen the Sable board to increase our chances of success in mineral exploration and consequently shareholders’ value creation.”
