Sirios announced the nomination of Guy Chevrette to the Board of Directors. In connection with its three-year plan, this appointment reflects the desire of the company to develop a strong corporate team to support the technical team that is ready to increase its explorations activity on the Cheechoo gold discovery. Mr. Chevrette first worked as an unionist where he made his mark as a key member of the Cliche Commission in the investigation of the sacking of James Bay in 1974.

He became a member of the National Assembly of Quebec in 1976, a position which he held until 2002. During this period, he served as Minister of Natural Resources, Minister responsible for Aboriginal Affairs, Minister responsible for regional development, Minister of Transport and Minister responsible for Wildlife and Parks. Roger Doucet has left his position as director of Sirios to allow the joining of Mr. Chevrette to the Board of Directors.

Nonetheless, Mr. Doucet is named the official technical advisor of Sirios. Now a retired geologist, he has, during his career, played a predominant role in the discovery and the development of several important gold mines.
