Takara Resources Inc. announced the appointment of John C. Gingerich, P. Geo., to the board of directors. Gingerich's appointment as a technical member of the board of directors is particularly instrumental given that his exploration career as a geophysicist began in the Athabasca Basin and Beaverlodge with Eldorado Nuclear Ltd. In 2002 Gingerich founded Geotechnical Business Solutions. Currently, he serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of Advanced Explorations Inc., and as Chairman of Bactech Environmental Corporation.
