Western Magnesium Announces Corporate Secretary

Mr. Alameddine previously worked with the Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD), one of the largest banks in Canada. During his time with TD he developed a thorough understanding of the regulatory standards which he utilized in his day-to-day responsibilities throughout his various positions within the organization. The implementation of compliance procedures within TD meant continual training and testing on material information necessary to carry out operational procedures that are held to the highest standard in our banking industry today.

The stringent practices of compliance procedures provided a strong foundation for Mr. Alameddine when it comes to safeguarding and protecting clients, employees, shareholders, and the Company as it moves forward. His skillset enables him to diligently perform tasks that are essential to maintaining the integrity, credibility, and confidence of the position as Corporate Secretary.

At the same time, the board would like to thank Ms. Lisa Maxwell for her commitment, dedication and professionalism as Corporate Secretary as she transitions into her new role of Senior Vice-President, Corporate Development at Western Magnesium.
