New Managing Director Appointed (announcement summary)
Kanmantoo underground redevelopment and commissioning attributed to prior CEO role
Wallace at Hillgrove; resigned July 2024 · issuer reported · medium materiality
Investigator’s FY2026 annual report states Wallace led Kanmantoo redevelopment from exploration through permitting, funding and execution to an underground cash-generating operation. This is issuer-reported attribution; Hillgrove records independently show 2025 production/cashflow after his departure, but do not isolate his personal contribution.
Attribution: Individual involvement documented. Current issuer biography explicitly links him to project delivery; no independent contribution audit located in this batch.
Relevance: Strong role-fit and past delivery evidence for the incoming/exploration development needs at Investigator.
