Sydney, Jan 25, 2011 (ABN Newswire) - Kimberley Metals Ltd (ASX:KBL) ("Kimberley") is pleased to announce the appointment of Michael Hanlon to the position of General Manager for the Mineral Hill Mine near Condobolin, in central western New South Wales. Mr Hanlon will assume responsibility for all mine operations and process plant refurbishment work as of 21 February 2010.
