Beowulf announces the appointment of Mikael Schauman as Non-Executive Director

Beowulf (AIM: BEM; Spotlight: BEO), the mineral exploration and development company focused on the Kallak magnetite iron ore project in northern Sweden, its graphite projects in Finland, and on gold and base metal exploration in Kosovo, is pleased to announce that Mikael Schauman has been appointed to the Board as Non-Executive Director (NED).

Mikael Schauman, a Swedish national, has been involved in base metals for the past forty years. His experience stretches from industrial marketing of products of mining companies as well as worldwide responsibility for trading these products to Senior Management of a publicly listed mining company. Mikael is versed in the field of mining, management of mining companies as well as commercialisation of the products, including industrial marketing, agency business and third-party trading, on a global basis.

Mikael Schauman holds a BSc in Finance from Stockholm School of Economics. He started his career at Boliden and subsequently spent 18 years at various commodity trading companies. For the past 16 years he served in the senior management of Lundin Mining Corporation as VP and SVP Commercial. In this role he had sole responsibility for the company’s commercial organisation and world-wide sales. Mikael has at the same time actively contributed to increasing growth within Lundin Mining, for example via the acquisitions and mergers made over the years. In the role of senior manager, he has also contributed to developing the Groups sustainability work.

Mikael Schauman said: “It is exciting to be part of a business that creates growth in a sustainable way. The green transition is important, and the products Beowulf develops are crucial for this transition to be sustainable in the long term.”

Johan Röstin, Chairman of Beowulf, said:

“We are delighted to have Mikael join the Board as NED. He brings a wealth of corporate experience to the Company including specialised knowledge of marketing products from mining companies and management experience. His experience will provide invaluable assistance throughout Beowulf’s portfolio.

“Mikael’s appointment, together with previous week’s announcement that Ed Bowie will take up the role of CEO in early August, are key milestones in building the Company for its important next phase of development.”
