MARINER APPOINTS ADVISORY BOARD

Mariner Resources Corp. has appointed David Gower, David Patterson, Andrew Lee Smith and Dr. David Shaw to its advisory board.

While at Falconbridge, he was general manager of global nickel and platinum group metal exploration and a member of the senior operating team that approved capital budgets for new mining projects. Mr. Gower has been involved in numerous discoveries and mine development projects, including at Raglan, Matagami and Sudbury, Canada, as well as greenfield discoveries in Brazil and Tanzania.

This mine was brought into production on time and on budget in 2013.
