Torex Gold Resources Inc. (the “Company” or “Torex”) (TSX: TXG)

decade. Results of the meeting are set out below.
Rick Howes, Chair of the Board of Torex,
stated:
“I am very pleased with the re-election of
Directors and look forward to continued work with each of them as
we build our future in Mexico and beyond. We have an accomplished,
skilled and diverse group of Directors – and for the first time in
our history have achieved gender parity on our Board – something we
are very proud of as we continue to do our part to seek greater
diversity within the mining industry.
“I want to extend my sincere appreciation to
Frank Davis, who has stepped down from the Board of Directors after
more than a decade of outstanding service. He has been instrumental
