VANCOUVER, BC, July 6, 2026 /CNW/ - Palisades Goldcorp Ltd. (TSXV: PALI) ("Palisades" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the appointment of Colonel Douglas A. Macgregor, Ph.D. (Ret.) to its Board of Directors. Colonel Macgregor is a decorated combat veteran with 28 years of service in the United States Army, a published author, a Ph.D. in international relations, and a former Senior Advisor to the U.S. Secretary of Defense. His appointment reflects Palisades' commitment to assembling a world-class board with deep expertise in geopolitics, natural resource security, and the global forces reshaping demand for the commodities at the heart of the Palisades portfolio.
Collin Kettell, Founder & CEO of Palisades stated: "We are honoured to welcome Colonel Macgregor to the Palisades board. Doug brings a perspective that very few people in the world can offer — a career spent at the highest levels of military strategy and geopolitical analysis, combined with a deep understanding of how global power dynamics translate into real-world demand for critical resources. At a time when gold, silver, copper, uranium, and the critical minerals that underpin national security are moving to the forefront of both government policy and investor attention, having a board member who has lived and operated at the crossing of those forces is an extraordinary advantage for our shareholders."
Colonel Douglas A. Macgregor, Ph.D. (Ret.), Incoming Board Member of Palisades stated: "I have spent my career studying the intersection of military power, geopolitical risk, and the resource competition that underlies both. The coming decade will be defined by nations scrambling to secure access to the metals and minerals that power modern economies and defense capabilities. Palisades has assembled one of the most thoughtfully constructed junior resource portfolios I have encountered, with a structure specifically designed to deliver maximum upside to exactly the kind of commodity supercycle I believe we are entering. I am looking forward to contributing to the Company's mission and to working with Collin and the team."
