EMED Mining Public Limited announced that as part of this financing, and having consulted with its major shareholders, as the company moves towards a new phase from the development to the operation of a major copper mine, the board believes that it is appropriate for certain board changes to occur to reflect this change. Accordingly Ronnie Beevor, Isaac Querub Caro, Ashwath Mehra and Bob Francis have all agreed to resign from board. Roger Davey has been appointed chairman and Alberto Lavandeira has been appointed Chief Executive Officer of the company.
