Lithium X Energy (TSXV:LIX) has announced the appointment of Timothy McKenna as vice president, investor relations, US government relations and corporate communications, effective February 1, 2017.
As quoted in the press release:

In this role, he will lead the Company’s communications strategy with investors, the media and government, community and industry audiences.
Mr. McKenna joins Lithium X with 35 years of experience in investor relations and communications.  He was vice president of Rockwood Holdings Inc., then the largest manufacturer of lithium, from 2006 until Rockwood’s $6.2 billion combination with Albemarle Corporation.  During his tenure, he created Rockwood’s investor relations and communications program and was instrumental in working with the U.S. Department of Energy to help Rockwood gain a $28 million grant to expand its lithium operations in North Carolina and Nevada’s Clayton Valley.  Previously he was senior vice president of investor and government relations for Smurfit-Stone Container Corp., then the largest containerboard manufacturer.
“We are extremely pleased to welcome Tim McKenna to our executive team,” commented Brian Paes-Braga, Lithium X CEO.  “Tim’s background speaks for itself.  His skills and experience with the investment community and in particular the lithium space, being an integral part of the growth of Rockwood from a small cap company to a successful $6.2 billion take-over in 2014 will help us expand our shareholder base in the US and beyond as we continue to pursue our strategic goal of becoming the go-to upstream lithium company.”
