I see a major opportunity to unlock significant value for shareholders as the Company advances towards becoming a leading silver developer in the Americas ."

Mr. Bowering added, " I am looking forward to working closely with Ross. Our ability to attract someone with Ross' expertise, energy and track record of value creation speaks volumes about the opportunity at Apollo. I believe he will have a transformative impact on the Company's future and all stakeholders will benefit greatly ."
