In his new capacity, Brink intends to focus on the Consolidated Mining Standard Initiative, a framework designed to bolster transparency and accountability across the global gold sector. He will work directly with Council CEO David Tait to manage the evolving role of gold within the modern financial system.

David Tait welcomed the appointment, citing Brink's deep industry expertise as a key asset for the Council’s future.
