Nevsun Resources Ltd. (TSX:NSU) (NYSE MKT: NSU) (“Nevsun” or the “Company”) today announced that Chief Operating Officer, Frazer Bourchier, will step down from the Company to pursue a position with a gold company based in Toronto. Mr. Bourchier continues with the Company until December 31, 2017. Nevsun has a de-centralized model with strong Eritrean and Serbian teams who will manage the business during a successor search.
