Galantas Gold Names New Senior Vice President of Operations for Andacollo Gold Project in Chile

Galantas Gold Corporation (TSXV: GAL, AIM: GAL) announced on November 10, 2026 the appointment of a new Senior Vice President of Operations, filling a leadership gap at the top of its Chilean operations team. The appointment comes roughly a month after former SVP Robert Sedgemore's tenure ended on October 9, 2026, and follows the August 5 resignation of Chief Operating Officer Brendan Morris.

The hire is timed to support the accelerating development of the company's 100%-owned Andacollo Gold Project in Chile's Coquimbo Region, where Galantas is working toward an operational restart. The company received its final key permitting approval from Chile's national mining regulator, SERNAGEOMIN, for the restart of Ripios Dumps operations, and commissioned M3 Engineering and Technology Corporation to lead a Preliminary Economic Assessment targeting completion in Q4 2026. Galantas also announced on November 9, the day before the appointment, that its first drill hole at Andacollo intersected 71 meters at 0.76 grams per tonne gold.

The new SVP of Operations will oversee infrastructure refurbishment, procurement, contractor engagement, and operational readiness at the Andacollo site, as well as the relocation of a 20,000-tonne-per-day crushing plant acquired from Mexico.
