Kavango appoints new COO
London-listed Kavango Resources nonexecutive director Alexandra Rose Gorman has agreed to become the company’s COO.
The change in her role is expected to take effect in early June, whereupon she will move to Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. It is expected that Gorman will be better able to manage the group's operations from this location.
"In her relatively short time with Kavango since she joined us as a nonexecutive director, [Gorman] has impressed the board and other stakeholders with her directness, drive and energy.
“We are confident that her combination of a technical geological background, familiarity with our projects in Botswana and Zimbabwe, and her knowledge of the mining industry generally, will be a real benefit to the company," Kavango chairperson David Smith said on March 3.
As nonexecutive director, Gorman was involved in both technical decisions and long term strategic planning. She has made several visits to Zimbabwe in this time.
She is trained as a geologist and has direct experience of the Kalahari Copperbelt, as it was the subject of her Masters degree. She has also previously worked with geologist Dave Catterall on the Khoemacau discovery.
Gorman is currently a mining analyst at Peel Hunt, covering small and mid-capitalised mining companies listed on the LSE. Prior to that, she worked on the BMO commodities team, and in various analytical, business improvement and consulting roles at Wood Mackenzie.
