PERTH (miningweekly.com) – ASX-listed Pilbara Minerals on Thursday announced the appointment of Ken Brinsden as company CEO effective from January 18.

Brinsden stood aside as MD of iron-ore miner Atlas Iron in June to make way for the return of founding MD David Flanagan. At the time, he was appointed as executive director of Atlas, but later took the role as nonexecutive director.

Pilbara said on Thursday that Brinsden’s experience in the resources sector would be invaluable to the company as it made the transition to a midtier mining company through the development of its Pilgangaroo lithium/tantalum project, in the Pilbara region.

Meanwhile, Pilbara executive director Neil Biddle would step down from his executive role at the completion of the Pilgangaroo feasibility study, which was targeted for mid-2016.

However, he would remain on the board as a nonexecutive director and would maintain his shareholding in the company.

Pilbara Minerals recently completed a A$12-million capital raising to fund the feasibility study for the Pilgangaroo project.
