STRATHMORE ANNOUNCES KEY SENIOR MANAGEMENT CHANGES.
Strathmore Minerals Corp (“Strathmore or “the Company”) announces the following key senior internal management changes, effective January 1, 2008:
Dev Randhawa is stepping down as CEO, but will continue his role as Chairman. Strathmore’s current President & COO, David Miller will succeed Mr. Randhawa as CEO. Mr. Steven Khan, Vice-President, Corporate Development, has been appointed President. John DeJoia becomes Vice-President, New Mexico Operations and James Crouch has been promoted to Vice-President, Wyoming Operations. Patrick Groening remains CFO.
These management changes are designed to effectively accomplish Strathmore’s transformation to an operating mining company. The Company’s primary development efforts continue in the Gas Hills Uranium District of Wyoming where production is expected to begin in 2009-2010 and at the premiere Roca Honda deposit in New Mexico, which is being co-developed with Sumitomo Corp.
Chairman Dev Randhawa, who founded Strathmore in 1996 and positioned the Company as an early uranium participant, noted, “This is the right team to take Strathmore to the next level. David Miller, Steve Khan and the entire technical team have the experience to complete our evolution into an operating mining company and lead Strathmore to our ultimate goal of becoming a leading uranium producer in the United States. ”
The Board would like to thank Mr. Randhawa for his contributions and guidance as CEO during the Company's formative years. Strathmore looks forward to his continued support as the Company enters a new phase of growth and opportunity.
The Company also announces that it has granted to directors and officers stock options to purchase up to 400,000 common shares at $2.25 per share for a period of 5 years.
