Board Update
Vast Resources plc, the AIM-listed mining company, is pleased to announce, further to the announcement on 25 October, the formal appointment of Mr Andrew Hall to the Board as Commercial Director with immediate effect. In addition to his existing responsibilities, he now leads the Company's external and investor communications.
Mr Hall’s role is focussed on the Company’s strategic business initiatives, capital raising, managing offtake relationships as well as leading the Company’s external and investor communications. Mr Hall has spent the last fourteen years working in natural resources and finance linked businesses. Before joining the Company in December 2018, Mr Hall previously worked at a natural resources focussed merchant bank where he established and managed the alternative finance distribution business covering asset managers, private equity, investment banks, family offices and trading houses.
Mr Hall’s appointment to the Board is designed to formalise the communication channel between the Board and investors and other stakeholders in the Company.

At the same time, Mr Roy Tucker has relinquished his executive functions but remains a Non-Executive Director at the request of the Board to make available his in-depth knowledge and understanding of the Company.
