Ireland-focused explorer Group Eleven has announced that laywer Ken Klassen has joined its board of directors.

He was appointed after Glencore Canada exercised its right to appoint a director to the TSX-V-listed company’s board.

“Ken is an experienced and well-respected lawyer in the international and Canadian mining industries, with an extensive background in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and corporate law,” said Group Eleven CEO Bart Jaworski.

Klassen recently served on the board of trustees of Noranda Income Fund, which owns and operates an electrolytic zinc processing facility in Salaberry-de-Valleyfield, Québec. His last full-time executive role was as the general counsel of Glencore, based in Baar, Switzerland, until retiring in 2016. In this role, Klassen was responsible for Glencore's global legal function including a team of in-house lawyers supporting executive management, business operations and its board of directors.

Prior to joining Glencore, Klassen had a successful 20-year career as a Canadian M&A and corporate lawyer at leading Canadian law firms.
