KAT Gold's Managing Director for Africa is Thomas Brookes, formerly CEO and founder of Global Gold, who, for more than 30 years, has been involved in the exploration and extraction of natural resources from drilling for oil and natural gas in Canada's high arctic to working in the gold fields of northwest British Columbia and the Yukon Territories. Mr. Brookes has a long established presence in Ghana West Africa having opened an office in Accra, Ghana in 2004 and has travelled extensively through all of the major Gold producing areas, including those off Burkina-Faso.
During these travels Thomas has met with the principles of several ongoing Gold mining operations and has also gained firsthand experience in the social skills necessary during negotiations with the local dignitaries and also the procedural elements regarding dealings with various Government departments. With Thomas Brookes leading the way in supervising the production of the Ekom Eya mining operation, along with planned acquisitions of other Gold prospects, KAT Gold Holdings Corp believes it will become a major contender within the African Gold mining industry.
Mr. Stead, CEO, stated, "Thomas Brookes is a seasoned professional with a reputation for getting things done. He has operated extensively in Ghana and other countries in the regions. His 'boots on the ground experience' is invaluable and substantially reduces, if not completely eliminates any learning curve. Our next step planned is to ramp up Gold Production at the Ekom Eya mine which we believe is a very significant Gold deposit."
