TORONTO (miningweekly.com) – EMED Mining, which is focused on restarting the legendary Rio Tinto copper mine, in Spain’s region of Andalucia, on Friday said it had appointed Rod Halliday as interim CEO and board member to replace the vacant position left by the recent resignation of founder Harry Anagnostaras-Adams.

Halliday (73) has been the CEO and deputy chairperson of Emed’s Spanish subsidiary, EMED Tartessus, through which it holds the Rio Tinto project, since September 2012.

Halliday is also a director of EMED’s Slovakian subsidiary, Slovenske Kovy.

He will take the role on an interim basis while the board searches for a new CEO.

He has significant leadership and management experience from senior positions spanning a broad range of industries, including 22 years in the Australian military, EMED said.

EMED is currently awaiting final approvals from Spanish authorities to proceed with redeveloping the Rio Tinto flagship project.
