Andy Davidson joins Centamin as Katharine Sutton moves to Cluff Gold
Mining specialist Andy Davidson has joined Centamin, a FTSE 250, Egypt-focused gold mining company listed in London and Toronto, as head of investor relations.
After graduating from the University of Southampton with a BSc in geology, Davidson worked for six years as a geologist at AngloGold Ashanti.
He then joined copper and gold producer Ivanhoe Mines in Mongolia, before gaining an MSc in mineral project appraisal at Imperial College in London.
