Falco strengthens board, installs Osisko’s Sean Roosen as chair

TSX-V-listed gold explorer Falco Resources has significantly strengthened its board, announcing on Friday that it had appointed former Osisko Mining and current Osisko Gold Royalties CEO Sean Roosen director and chairperson of the board, after Osisko Gold last month announced that it intended to raise its ownership in Falco to 14.99%. "Sean made an enormous contribution to the gold mining industry in the province of Quebec during his tenure as president and CEO of Osisko Mining Corp. Falco stands to benefit from a stronger relationship with its largest shareholder in three ways – access to capital, technical bench strength and first-in-class sustainability practices,” Falco president and CEO Trent Mell said.
