Entée Resources, the London-listed mining company focused on uranium and copper projects in the United States, has appointed Chris Adams as its new chief executive officer with immediate effect. The announcement, made on 18 July 2026, marks a leadership change as the firm seeks to accelerate development of its key assets.
Adams succeeds interim CEO who had been in the role since earlier this year. He joins from a background in mining project management and corporate finance, having previously held senior roles at mid-tier resource companies. The board said his experience in advancing projects through feasibility and permitting stages would be critical to Entrée's next phase.
The company's primary focus is on the Pumpkin Hollow copper project in Nevada and uranium properties in the western United States. These assets have been in the portfolio for several years but have yet to reach production. The appointment of a new CEO suggests a renewed push to move them closer to development.
Shares of Entrée Resources were trading at 12.5p on the AIM market on Friday, having been relatively flat over the past month. The broader FTSE AIM All-Share index was down 0.3% in afternoon trading. Mining sector analysts noted that the CEO change could be positive if it leads to clearer timelines for project milestones.
For UK investors, Entrée Resources remains a speculative play on the uranium and copper markets. The company has no current production and relies on project financing and partner agreements. The new CEO will need to demonstrate progress on permitting and funding to reassure shareholders.
