Bradford Cooke, Chief Executive Officer and Director, has been invited by the Board to assume the role of Executive Chair of Endeavour, and plans to step down as the CEO immediately following the AGM. Dan Dickson, Chief Financial Officer, has been nominated to assume the role of CEO of Endeavour, and Christine West, Vice President Controller, has been nominated to assume the role of CFO of Endeavour.

I look forward to supporting Dan and Christine in their new roles, and we appreciate the vote of confidence of our Board of Directors.”

“I plan to stay active with Endeavour, utilizing my knowledge of and contacts in the mining industry to continue building a bigger and better Company. However, given that Endeavour is now preparing for its next phase of growth, starting with the construction of the Terronera project this year, now is an appropriate time to pass the baton to our rising stars in management.”
