Doug Flanagan, the newly appointed CEO, comes with an immense experience in delivering base and precious metal projects, rare earths and oil, and gas projects in Australia, Zambia, Malaysia, and Central and North America.

The appointment of the new CEO underpins King River’s focus on in-demand critical metals such as high purity alumina that is used in LED lights, Iphone facias, and lithium batteries.

King River Chairman, Tony Barton, said: “The directors of King River Resources believe Doug’s considerable experience and broad technical and leadership skill base will not only bring the necessary experience to progress our projects forward to execution but will drive the entire business forward with new energy and insights into the broad potential of the high purity aluminium and precursor markets.”

Doug Flanagan is a qualified engineer with more than 25 years of experience in the mining and energy industries at all stages of project life, right from construction to operation of multibillion-dollar plants across different commodities.

In King River Resources, Flanagan will reportedly focus on research and development of new markets and building relationships with potential new clients and business partners.

Outlook for the Indian Aluminium Industry

The company’s new HPA processing plant will produce 2000 tonnes of ultra-high purity product a year instead of the original plan to produce 9,000 tonnes of 99.99 per cent HPA a year.

According to King River, the new reduced-scale plant will be able to leverage its accumulated intellectual property to significantly reduce capital and operational costs compared to the full-scale option.
