Dated annual reports and a March 2026 issuer announcement add career chronology for the CEO, CTO and company secretary, including technically relevant but issuer-reported project and professional credentials. Leadership biographies still lack complete independent verification, exact prior-role dates and attributable delivery outcomes.

Chief Executive Officer / Executive Director

Career chronology

  • Career began in property; exact positions and dates not detailed in annual report: Real estate and property development — Entrepreneur / property developer. Annual Report 2024 (p. 10)

  • Relocated to Zambia in 2013; issuer reports development of health programs, facility and ambulance/mobile clinic network: Health Hope Zambia — Founder / charity leader. Annual Report 2024 (p. 10)

  • Issuer annual report states co-founded and led multiple ventures focused on copper/cobalt tailings and base/precious-metals exploration; names, dates and results not detailed: Zambian mining development and exploration companies — CEO and co-founder. Annual Report 2024 (p. 10–11)

  • Director appointment 22 July 2021 per market directory; dated annual report confirms Executive Director, and current issuer page identifies CEO/Executive Director: Victory Metals — Executive Director; CEO. Annual Report 2024 (p. 10); Board of Directors and Management (CEO and Executive Director profile)

Education and qualifications

No formal qualification listed in reviewed dated leadership disclosure

FY2024 annual report · documented · low materiality

The FY2024 annual report biography reviewed does not list a degree or professional qualification for Clark. This is absence in that disclosure only and does not establish that no qualification exists.

Attribution: Responsibility unresolved. The issuer source does not list education; no other credential record was located in focused public search.

Relevance: Limits assessment of technical qualification but does not determine management capability.

Annual Report 2024 (p. 10)

Contributions and company outcomes

North Stanmore discovery and resource advancement

Discovery and resource advances during 2021–2026; exact dates not stated on profile · issuer reported · medium materiality

Victory’s current issuer biography credits Clark as fundamental to discovery of North Stanmore and notes multiple resource upgrades. This is a current issuer claim on an undated leadership page. It does not establish his geological authorship or personal causal contribution; project remains development-stage with no production outcome evidenced.

Attribution: Role overlaps event; causation unproven. CEO/director tenure overlaps the project, while issuer biography attributes a fundamental contribution; independent technical reports can validate the resource but not individual causation.

Relevance: Potentially material exploration leadership experience, with no operating delivery record established.

Suitability for the current role

Role relevance and evidenced background

Background reviewed through 2026-10-09 · analyst inference · low materiality

The issuer describes prior property-development and humanitarian work in Zambia followed by leadership of mining exploration and development companies; personal attribution for project discoveries is not independently established here. Current title in the selected roster: Chief Executive Officer / Executive Director. This supports role relevance at a high level; the public evidence reviewed does not establish personal causal responsibility for employer or project outcomes.

Attribution: Responsibility not applicable. Role-fit judgment based on the selected roster and issuer-reported professional background; no causal claim is made.

Relevance: Relevant to the current Chief Executive Officer / Executive Director responsibilities, subject to the evidence limitations recorded below.

Career transition from property and humanitarian work to mining exploration

2013 onward; earlier career dates not stated · analyst inference · medium materiality

Victory’s FY2024 annual report states Clark began in property development, moved to Zambia in 2013 to lead Health Hope Zambia, then co-founded and led several mining exploration/development businesses. It reports the charity facilities and service network but supplies no audited impact metrics, named mining entities or project outcomes.

Attribution: Individual involvement documented. Annual report directly attributes founder and CEO roles but provides limited independently verifiable detail on outcomes.

Relevance: Provides entrepreneurial leadership experience; geology/engineering credentials are not listed in the reviewed source.
