Dr. Danielle Giovenazzo

Independent Advisor (Geologist)

Dr Danielle Giovenazzo brings extensive experience as an exploration geologist specialising in Ni, Cu and PGE sulphides in both brownfield and greenfield exploration, and project generation in North America, South America, Africa and Australasia for Falconbridge, Xstrata Nickel, Castillian Resources and the consulting sector. She managed large scale nickel exploration programs and made a significant contribution to expanding the resource base in the Raglan camp for Falconbridge. She is a presently a director of the Newgenco group of companies that uses technical alliances with other organisations to identify, develop and test new targeting methodologies, cutting-edge detection technologies and innovative management strategies.

Dr. Sally Goodman

Independent Advisor (Structural Geologist)

Sally is an Associate Consultant with SRK, based in Montreal and working through the Toronto office. Sally is an applied structural geologist, with over 15 years experience of structural analysis of complex areas, mainly in the PreCambrian terrains of Europe and North America. Her key skill is the integration of the structural framework with diverse data sets (geophysical/geochemical survey data, satellite imagery, lithological mapping etc.) to reconstruct the spatial and temporal development of mineralising systems at a regional to deposit scale. Since joining SRK, this skill has been applied to project/target generation and ranking, optimization of drill-testing, resource estimation and grade control in a range of deposit/commodity types, including Archaean gold, orthomagmatic nickel, banded iron formation, oil & gas. Sally has also recently taught mineral deposit geology, metamorphic petrology and environmental geology at McGill University and Concordia University, Montreal.

Steve Balch P.Geo.

Independent Advisor (Geophysicist)

Steve Balch is a geophysicist with over 25 years experience in mineral exploration and in the development of geophysical technology. Steve has consulted to a number of major and junior mining companies including Inco Limited, FNX Mining, Wallbridge Mining, James Bay Resources, Noront Resources and Tanqueray Resources. As co-founder of Aeroquest International Limited (TSXV – AQL), Steve helped bring the company public in 2004 and served as President until 2007.

In 2008 Steve formed Hudson River Minerals Ltd, an Ontario-based junior exploration company. Steve’s area of expertise is centered on the use of borehole and airborne geophysical technologies for nickel, copper and platinum group element exploration.

Jeremy Brett M.Sc. P.Geo.

Independent Advisor (Geophysicist)

Mr. Brett is a senior consulting geophysicist with a strong geological and management background, and over 16 years of experience in mineral exploration with many of Canada’s leading junior and major exploration and mining companies. He has designed, supervised and interpreted ground and airborne geophysical surveys for nickel, base metals, gold, uranium, oil and gas, REE and diamond exploration, in North America, Africa, Southeast Asia and South America, while working closely with geological exploration teams. He has supervised and conducted fieldwork in southern Africa and northern Canada.

Mr. Brett is experienced in magnetic and gravity methods, VLF, frequency-domain and time-domain electromagnetics, electrical methods (IP and resistivity), radiometrics, ground penetrating radar, and a variety of geographic and satellite remote sensing methods. His specialty has been in the imaging, synthesis and interpretation of geophysical data and its direct integration with ore deposit models and structural/tectonic frameworks, for target identification and testing.

Stewart McQuade

Independent Advisor (Chromite Specialist)

Stewart McQuade has 10 years experience in the exploration industry relating to mineral resource exploration and evaluation. He is a registered Professional Geologist in South Africa, and a recognised competent person for signing off of on Chromite Resources and Reserves.
