Career chronology

Contributions and company outcomes

FY2026 Horse Heaven acquisition, discovery and financing milestones

FY2026 · documented · medium materiality

Resolution Minerals’ FY2026 annual report describes acquisition of 100% of Horse Heaven, Phase 1 and Phase 2 drilling, significant gold discoveries at Golden Gate North and South, and institutional placements announced at A$25.1m in September 2025 and A$20m in April 2026; its October quarterly says A$10.8m of the April placement remained in a second tranche. It also records acquisition of the Johnson Creek processing site and tungsten stockpiles. These are company-reported exploration, financing and asset milestones; individual technical or financing contributions by Aharon Zaetz are not separately quantified in the report. The February 2026 issuer drilling release quotes Zaetz describing gold intercepts in all 14 shallow RC holes and a tungsten intercept; the release characterises this as an early discovery and proposed resource-definition work, not a resource estimate or production.

Attribution: Role overlaps event; causation unproven. The report documents company activity during the executives’ company roles but does not tie the milestones to this individual’s actions.

Relevance: Relevant to the track record of a development-stage company; exploration results and prospective processing remain unproven commercial outcomes.

Business failures and setbacks

Funding runway and related-party disclosure differ within the quarterly report

September–October 2026 · issuer reported · medium materiality

At 30 September 2026 Resolution reported A$1.637m cash and A$8.723m quarterly operating and exploration outflows, yielding 0.2 quarters on its Appendix 5B basis. The October release announced a subsequent loan facility of up to A$10m with 12% interest and six-month maturities. The narrative describes A$0.59m of item 6.1 director fees, while Appendix 5B item 6.1 reports A$559,000; item 6.2 reports A$1.298m in related-party investing payments. The discrepancy is unresolved.

Attribution: Role overlaps event; causation unproven. Company-wide cash, financing and director-related payments arose while the person served; the reporting does not identify a personal cause or allocate individual payments.

Relevance: Relevant to financial planning and governance, without implying misconduct.

Governance and interests

Related-party consulting fees disclosed for executive services

FY2024–FY2026 · issuer reported · medium materiality

The Form 20-F describes consulting fees to Consult4nts for Zaetz services of A$491,992 in FY2026, A$350,000 in FY2025 and A$204,167 in FY2024. The FY2026 remuneration table includes A$142,000 in retroactive salary increases, so the A$491,992 should not be treated as proven cash paid during that year. Zaetz is a director of the service entity. The company says its related-party transactions were at arm’s length; this screening did not independently verify the terms.

Attribution: Individual involvement documented. The SEC filing names the provider, executive relationship and amounts; the issuer states arm’s-length terms, which were not independently verified.

Relevance: Relevant to CFO / CEO governance, service-contract disclosure and financial-reporting oversight.

Suitability for the current role

Current role and disclosed experience: Aharon Zaetz

Current role as of cutoff · analyst inference · low materiality

Resolution Minerals identifies Aharon Zaetz as Chief Executive Officer and Director. The reviewed issuer page does not independently validate qualifications or establish results personally attributable to this executive. Role fit is therefore limited to the function stated in the title; broader suitability remains uncertain.

Attribution: Responsibility not applicable. This is a limited analyst assessment from the issuer-reported current role; no personal outcome is inferred.

Relevance: Role match is relevant to present oversight, but the source set is too thin to assess delivery or effectiveness.
