Gerald and Edmund were both founders of Aurvista Gold (now Maple Gold Mines Ltd.) and served on the board of directors since the Company's inception in 2011. The acquisition of the Douay Gold Project and subsequent IPO and initial rounds of financing were led by Gerald and Edmund, both did not stand for re-election at the most recent AGM with the updated board of directors now at seven members.
