Oceanus gold miner announces new head of IR

Oceanus Resources Corporation, a Canadian gold exploration firm that operates out of Mexico, has named Tania Shaw as its new vice president of IR.

Shaw, a standing member of CIRI who obtained the Certified Professional Investor Relations designation in 2013, comes most recently from Roxgold and has more than 12 years’ IR experience in the mining industry. 

Welcoming Shaw to the company, Glenn Jessome, president and CEO of Oceanus, says in a press release that ‘having Tania on board will allow us to expand our reach to shareholders and the analyst community as we educate the market on the El Tigre property, with the ultimate goal of increasing shareholder value.’

The firm’s El Tigre project is located in Sonora, Mexico, which hosts a number of the world’s largest gold and silver deposits. The company completed its acquisition of El Tigre in November 2015, began exploration in February 2016 and completed 62 drill holes this year – meaning that Shaw is joining Oceanus at a key moment in the project.

‘I am excited to join this team of seasoned mine finders, and feel that we are just beginning to scratch the surface at El Tigre,’ says Shaw in the statement. ‘As we communicate the company’s plans and vision to the financial community, I am confident that we will unlock shareholder value for current and future shareholders of the company.’
