The Chatree Gold Mine is named after "Chatree", one of its founding geologists, who was tragically killed in a car accident in 1992, only a few years after making the discovery. Our Akara Resources colleagues recently caught up with Chatree's mother in Northern Thailand, to reassure her that her son's honour and memory remains at the forefront of everything we do at Chatree, more than 31 years after his untimely passing. We've put together a short video to commemorate his life, and to provide a snapshot of the enormous legacy he still leaves today.

Our new address is:
Suite 12.07 – Level 12
