Catherine Gignac, a veteran mining analyst, is set to join Sandfire Securities next Monday as a managing director.

Gignac has been analysing mining companies for more than 20 years and has worked for a number of firms including UBS Warburg, Dundee Securities, RBC Capital Markets, Merrill Lynch Canada and Wellington West.

Gignac, whose appointment is subject to regulatory approval and whose research focuses on the precious metal and diamond sectors in North America, has also worked as a geologist for Barrick Gold.

Of course, there is one other detail investors are curious about: Ecuador. Kinross has completed its acquisition of Aurelian Resources Inc and controls the prized Fruta del Norte deposit. The question now is what the future holds given the political uncertainty.. Catherine Gignac, an analyst at Wellington West Capital Markets, said that Canadian companies in the region believe that the new mining law in Ecuador could be approved by the end of the year, which would allow the government-imposed mining moratorium to be lifted early next year (though some work at the sites continues). In the meantime, the payback on the acquisition is "uncertain.". "We believe Ecuador's new government wants foreign investment in their new metal mining industry and will work with the companies on a case-by-case basis," she wrote in a note to clients. She also said that a resource update at Fruta del Norte is expected at year-end.
