I joined Archer Cathro in 2003 and became a partner of the company in 2012. Since 2009, I have managed QA/QC programs for multiple junior mining companies and served as a Qualified Person for purposes of 43-101. I have led numerous early and advanced stage exploration programs for a broad variety of commodity types, with an emphasis on precious-metal deposits, in multiple jurisdictions. My career began with managing diamond drill programs in remote areas of the Yukon and later expanded to other areas of western North America. This experience spans a broad range of the project lifecycle from grass roots project generation through to pre-feasibility level. I have been involved in programs covering a wide variety of deposit types including porphyry copper-gold, iron oxide copper gold, unconformity-associated uranium, carbonate replacement, skarn, Alaskan type ultramafic, hyper-enriched black shale, epithermal precious metal, and intrusion related gold systems. My background in Geological Engineering and Geostatistics is particularly well suited to the design, execution, and review of advanced stage exploration projects preparing to enter the resource estimation phase or beyond. Of particular interest to me is assisting project owners, or companies conducting due diligence reviews, to evaluate and audit projects and proposed activities to ensure they efficiently meet the company's long-term objectives. I firmly believe that to truly understand finer details of a project, you must first take the time to understand the bigger picture spanning across multiple disciplines.
