Vancouver B.C.: — It is with great sadness and regret that TNR Gold Corp. (“TNR” or the “Company”) announces that John Fraser, valued Director of TNR and friend, passed away on Tuesday July 13th with his family by his side. The Board of directors, employees and consultants of TNR offer their sincere condolences to John’s wife Monica and family.
During John’s long and successful career in our local mining community he stood on the boards of several junior mining companies. He embodied the consummate explorationist and seamlessly wove his joy for exploration and science with a deep and unwavering social conscience. His was always the voice of encouragement, wisdom and hope. It is clear why he was a friend and mentor to so many.
On the Board of TNR John’s wise counsel and dedication will be dearly missed and his sound judgment we shall continue to emulate.
Thank you John.
Services for John will be held Saturday, July 17th at Boal Chapel & Memorial Gardens,‎ 1505 Lillooet Road, North Vancouver, BC from 1:30pm to 4:30 pm. On Sept 9, 2010 a memorial open house will be held in John’s honour from 2-8 pm at the Coast Mountain Group office, Suite 620-650 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, B.C.
On behalf of the board,
Gary Schellenberg
President
