LONDON - Panther Metals Plc (LSE:PALM) announced Wednesday the appointment of Kerem Usenmez to its advisory board, bringing expertise on the company’s Winston polymetallic project in Canada.
Usenmez, who has over 25 years of mining industry experience, previously served as CEO of Metallum Resources Inc., which formerly held the Winston Project before its takeover by Frontier Energy. During his tenure at Metallum, he oversaw the completion of a 2021 NI 43-101 compliant Feasibility Study for the project.
The new advisor currently serves as President and CEO of Canadian-listed Volta Metals Ltd (CSE:VLTA) and sits on the board of directors of the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada, where he chairs the Securities and Public Affairs Committees.
According to the company’s press release, Usenmez will begin his advisory role upon successful completion of the Winston acquisition. Panther noted that he will not provide advice on lithium or rare earth element projects due to his position at Volta.
The Winston Project, described as a high-grade, advanced-stage polymetallic zinc, copper and precious metal property, is subject to option and purchase agreements announced by Panther on June 17, 2025.
Darren Hazelwood, Chief Executive Officer of Panther Metals, stated that Usenmez brings "knowledge and intimate understanding of the Winston Project" along with established relationships with local stakeholders, including First Nation communities.
