As part of Torex Gold Resources’ long-term succession planning,  Andrew Snowden, who has served as chief financial officer since 2021, will assume the role of president and CEO when current President and CEO Jody Kuzenko retires on June 17. 

“After eight years with Torex and a career that has spanned almost 30 years, my mandate as CEO has been delivered and I have every confidence in Andrew to lead the company through the next chapter of growth and success,” said Kuzenko. 

“We have delivered Media Luna, stabilized production, and set ourselves up for long-term success at Morelos; we have an impeccable balance sheet and significant free cash flow projected for the foreseeable future; and we have a pipeline of exploration assets to support our next phase of growth in Guerrero, Sinaloa, Chihuahua, Nevada and beyond. The business is firing on all cylinders, and the timing is right for this transition. The business is ready – this was part of the plan and Torex is in very capable hands.”

Snowden is an accomplished mining executive with 25 years of international corporate experience, having worked in the UK, Australia and Canada. During his time at Torex, he has provided leadership in all areas of business and financial management, including strategic planning, operational excellence, debt financing and corporate development. 

He is a member of the Institute of Corporate Directors, a member of the Institute of Chartered Professional Accountants of Ontario (CPA, CA), and has a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Durham in England.
