Aflease Gold appoints new Senior Geologist
For Immediate Release - Johannesburg: 24th May 2006. Aflease Gold (JSE; AFO;
Nasdaq; AFSGY) is pleased to announce that Warwick Bullen has joined as Vice
President, Geology and Exploration.
Mr Bullen is an economic geologist with over 18 years of international
experience. He has managed mineral exploration projects in Ghana, Eritrea,
Botswana and Malawi and consulted on projects in Ethiopia and Jordan. While his
exploration focus has been mainly on gold projects, he also has considerable
experience in the base metals and platinum sectors. He was the Ore Reserve
Manager on Harmony Gold Mine, South Africa, from 1995 to 1997 and was the Senior
Mining Advisor/Mineral Economist to the Government of the Northwest Territories,
Canada, from 2000 to 2004. His career began with the South African Council for
Geoscience, where he was made Deputy Manager - Metallogenic Mapping.
Mr Bullen";s experience ranges from grassroots exploration through projects
evaluation to financial modelling. He played an important role in the discovery
of the Highbury Lithium deposit in South Africa, identified the first primary
occurrence of gold mineralisation in Jordan and was instrumental in the
discovery of a number of new, potentially economic gold deposits in Ethiopia.
Mr Bullen holds a Master of Science degree in Economic Geology from Rhodes
University, South Africa. He is widely published in scientific and technical
journals and is a regular speaker at conferences around the world.
