Monarques Gold Corp. has appointed Michel Bouchard as chairman of the corporation’s board of directors, effective July 1, 2016. Bouchard, who is already a director, will replace Michel Baril, who will move into the role of the chair of the audit committee.
“We are delighted that Mr. Bouchard has agreed to assume more responsibility with Monarques at a critical point in its development. As we have said repeatedly, we plan to develop the Croinor Gold project with a view to putting it into production. We believe that Mr. Bouchard’s extensive experience in mineral project exploration, development and production will help guide us towards our end goal,” said Jean-Marc Lacoste, president and chief executive officer.
“We also want to thank Mr. Baril for his valuable assistance as cairman of the board, and we are very pleased that he has agreed to stay on as the chair of the audit committee,” added Lacoste.
Michel Bouchard has more than 30 years of experience in mineral exploration, development and production and is credited with the discovery of the Bouchard-Hébert mine in northwestern Quebec. He served as president and chief executive officer of Clifton Star Resources until recently, and has previously held senior management positions with Aiguebelle Resources, Audrey Resources, Lyon Lake Mines, SOQUEM, McWatters Mining, Cadiscor Resources, North American Palladium and NAP Quebec Mines. He also sits on the boards of a number of other public mining companies. Bouchard has a B.Sc. and an M.Sc. in geology and an MBA.
