Kootenay Silver appoints exploration
Canada-based exploration company Kootenay Silver has appointed geologist Dale Brittliffe as VP of exploration.
Brittliffe has more than 25 years’ experience in exploration for precious and base metals deposits in Canada, Mexico and Australia.
He will will be directly involved in the advancement of Kootenay's Mexican projects, most notably the Columba silver project in Chihuahua.
A graduate of Curtin University of Technology, Western Australia (1997), Brittliffe's early career included grassroots exploration for gold, nickel, copper and tantalum/niobium across Australia as well as openpit mine production and near-mine brownfield exploration in the West Australian goldfields. In 2006, he relocated to Vancouver, and has held key roles in junior exploration companies focused on discovery and definition of gold and silver deposits in Western Canada and Mexico.
Brittliffe worked previously for Kootenay Silver as exploration geologist on projects in Sonora state, Mexico, and most recently served as VP exploration with Silver Viper Minerals.
"We are very pleased to have Dale rejoin the Kootenay Silver team. We know Dale well and he is both a great asset to the company and a complement to our team. We look forward to Dale's guidance as we aim to develop our properties, including the incredibly promising Columba high-grade silver project in Columba, Mexico.
“We also want to acknowledge Dr Tom Richards who continues as a mentor and adviser to the team in Mexico, as VP emeritus. Dr Richards has put together an incredible body of geologic work detailing the underlying regional geologic framework of our project areas and how they relate to mineralization and where to look for ore bodies,” said CEO and president Jim McDonald.
