He has substantial experience working on and evaluating various intrusive related porphyry copper-gold systems throughout the Cordillera from Alaska to southern Peru and has participated in major projects such as the exploration of the Antamina porphyry skarn deposit in Peru prior to the development of the deposit and successfully led several significant discoveries in Latin America that were fast tracked into production.
