PRESENTATION TITLE:
GOLD, GUNPOWDER AND GRIT: VICTORIA’S MINING RENAISSANCE

The Tripe Club of Victoria is delighted to present Mr Michael Hudson, CEO and Managing Director of Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd(ASX: SX2).
Michael is an Australian geologist with over 30 years of international field experience spanning six countries and multiple commodities. He began his career underground at Broken Hill in 1990 and has built a track record of discovery from South Australia to Pakistan, Scandinavia and Finland. He is fifth-generation from the Kilmore district, where Southern Cross Gold's offices are located in his great-great-great grandfather's 1856 corn and grain store — the oldest inland town in Victoria.
Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd (dual-listed on the ASX and Toronto SX) is one of Australia's fastest-growing gold companies, that built on an initial market capitalisation of A$20million to now approximate A$2.5 billion.
The company is developing its flagship Sunday Creek Gold-Antimony Project in central Victoria — a region with deep historical roots in gold mining and, less well known, one of the Western world's most significant antimony deposits-a mineral essential to defence, energy storage and fireproofing.
Beyond the geology, Michael has become a prominent voice on critical minerals strategy and sovereign supply chains, working in particular, with governments in Australia, the United States and Canada on the strategic importance of antimony.
