Torque brings in director coincident with Penzance acquisition

Torque Metals (ASX:TOR) has appointed Imants Kins as Non-Executive Director, effective immediately, after completing the acquisition of the Penzance tenement package in Western Australia, as previously reported.

Kins is a senior executive with more than40 years of experience in the resources and technology sectors for ASX-listed, unlisted, and not-for-profit organisations. 

Kins was involved with Tantalum Australia (TAA) during 2001 to 2006 as Managing Director and Executive Chairman, which, during that time, TAA was holder of the New Dawn Lithium Project tenements. 

Torque says Kins adds ‘significant’ value to the company with his experience as the company moves to advance its adjacent New Dawn Lithium Project. 

Managing Director Cristian Moreno says Torque will be leveraging Kins’ insights as it navigates through key milestones.

“It is fitting that we now seek to add to our technical capabilities as we progress Torque’s 3 highly prospective promising projects. Torque can benefit from the significant skills and experience Mr Imants Kins will bring to the board at this crucial time, with the New Dawn transaction executed and the Paris Gold Project advancing strongly.”

Kins holds a Bachelor of Economics from the University of Western Australia and Master of Arts in Future Studies form the Curtin University of Technology. 

Torque Metals is a diversified explorer focused on its gold, nickel, and lithium assets in Western Australia.
