Ridgestone Mining Inc. announced the appointment of Brian Goss as President, effectively immediately, given the recent resignation of Mr. George from his director and officer positions with the Company. Mr. Goss graduated from Wayne State University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Geology in 2003, and apart from a short stint working for Kennecott Exploration during the early exploration stages of the Eagle Project in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, has been based in Northern Nevada since. On arrival in Nevada, he worked as a staff geologist for Cameco Corporation, and its subsequent spin out company, Centerra Gold Inc., where he helped contribute to the expansion of the +1-million-ounce REN
gold deposit that was eventually taken over by Barrick Gold. Mr. Goss has held several other project geologist positions prior to eventually founding Rangefront Mining Services in early 2008. Brian has built Rangefront into a premier geology and mining services company that caters to a large spectrum of clients in the mining and minerals exploration industries. Mr. Jonathan George, former CEO and Director, remains President and Director of the Company's
Mexican subsidiary.
