Kirkland Lake Gold Inc. has appointed Anthony (Tony) P. Makuch as chief executive officer.
Anthony Makuch will join Kirkland Lake Gold in the coming weeks after finishing in his current role, and Barry Olson, director, will assume the role of interim chief executive officer until that time.
“After careful consideration, the board of directors has determined that Tony is ideally positioned to lead Kirkland Lake Gold into the next stage of its development. Tony’s track record of leadership in the gold mining industry and his demonstrated ability to grow and optimize production will be excellent assets for Kirkland Lake Gold,” said Eric Sprott, chairman of Kirkland Lake Gold.
Makuch brings more than 25 years of management, operations and technical experience in the mining industry, most notably as president and chief executive officer of Lake Shore Gold. Under his leadership, Lake Shore Gold increased production and reserves, lowered costs and increased margins, leading to substantial value creation. Most recently, he was president of Canadian operations, Tahoe Resources Inc.
