American Manganese Inc. (CVE:AMY) announced Wednesday that it has appointed Zarko Meseldzija as chief technical officer.

Shares of the diversified specialty and critical metal company perked up 9.68% at C$0.17. 

"Zarko brings AMY a range of industry experience, acquired by working with one of Canada's largest energy companies and an innovation-driven process systems company," said president and chief executive Larry Reaugh.

"Zarko has deep insight into project management of multimillion-dollar projects as well as technical knowledge of hydrometallurgical process development projects, particularly in the field of e-waste and lithium-ion battery recycling."

According to the firm, Meseldzija's early introduction into the urban mining sector inspired him to build his career on emerging technologies and to open an independent consulting firm focused on lithium-ion battery supply chain management and the recycling of battery metals such as cobalt, lithium, nickel and manganese. He holds a bachelor in mining engineering from the University of Alberta and is a registered engineer with the Engineers and Geoscientists of British Columbia.

"During his time as a consultant, Zarko demonstrated a full understanding of our recycling technology and has proven to be an innovative leader in our organization's growth," added Reaugh.
