Mr Grayson is a geologist with deep exploration experience in the goldfields of Western Australia. He has held senior roles with Northern Star Resources and Barrick Gold. Mr Grayson has a successful track record of increasing Life of Mine gold resources through exploration success and brings a wealth of knowledge to the Kin team.

A Maiden Ore Reserve of 373koz Au was announced on 2 October 20171 and the company has since raised $7M to support an aggressive exploration program which is expected to re-commence during Q1 2018.

Mr Grayson's experience within the Western Australian goldfields will provide considerable knowledge to deliver positive outcomes from work planned for 2018. He holds a BAppSc in Geology from the University of Ballarat and a Graduate Diploma in Geospatial Information from RMIT.

Kin's Managing Director, Don Harper, said the Company was delighted to have secured someone of Mr Grayson's calibre and experience who will continue to drive the Company's growth aspirations through advanced near mine gold exploration and gold production.
