ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) has appointed Pierre-Marc Gagnon, P.Eng., as operations director for its Montauban Gold-Silver Project in Québec, the company announced. Gagnon brings extensive experience in underground and open-pit mining, exploration, drilling and project development, having held operational roles with major mining companies including Agnico Eagle Mines, Newmont and G.E.T.T. Gold.
In his new role, Gagnon will support site execution, contractor coordination, technical planning and operational readiness as ESGold advances the fully permitted Montauban Project toward construction and future production. The appointment reflects the company’s continued focus on strengthening its Québec-based operations team while advancing construction and site preparation activities at Montauban.
ESGold also announced the grant of 25,000 restricted share units to Gagnon, bringing his total RSU awards to 150,000, subject to approval by the Canadian Securities Exchange. The company is a fully permitted, pre-production mining company advancing a scalable clean mining model across North and South America, with its flagship Montauban Project under construction and production anticipated in 2026.
The appointment of a seasoned operations director is a key step as ESGold transitions from development to production. Gagnon’s experience with tier-one miners like Agnico Eagle and Newmont is expected to be instrumental in executing the project’s construction phase and ensuring operational readiness. The Montauban Project is one of the few fully permitted gold-silver projects in Québec, a mining-friendly jurisdiction, and its advancement could provide a near-term production catalyst for the company.
