Corporate Governance
Colt Resources's Board of Directors believes that sound corporate governance practices are essential to the well-being of the Corporation and the promotion and protection of its shareholders' interests.
The Board has adopted a mandate, which reflects the Corporation's commitment to high standards of corporate governance, to assist the Board in supervising the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation as required under applicable law and stock exchange rules and requirements.
The fundamental responsibility of the Board is to supervise the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation with a view to sustainable value creation for all shareholders.
