North American Palladium appoints COO
TORONTO (miningweekly.com) – North American Palladium (NAP) on Wednesday announced the appointment of James Gallagher as COO effective from October 1.
Gallagher is a seasoned mining executive with more than 30 years’ experience in a series of roles spanning operations, projects, engineering, technology and consulting.
For the last seven years, he served as global director of mining at consulting engineering firm Hatch, with a mandate to build the firm's global underground capability, where he led the firm's global mining group involved in transitioning projects to normal operations.
Before Hatch, the foundational part of his experience came from his 24-year career at diversified miner Falconbridge in a variety of operations and project management roles, most of which were based in Northern Ontario.
Gallagher also has a record of identifying improvement opportunities and building out technical capabilities. He holds a Bachelor of Mining Engineering degree from Laurentian University, in Canada.
"We are pleased to welcome Jim to the executive team, where his areas of expertise, and specific underground experience in the Canadian Shield, will help drive value for the company.
"Jim's strong expertise in both mining operations and development, combined with his extensive knowledge of the mine contracting and consulting industry, yields a unique ability to deliver mine projects from concept through to steady-state operations,” NAP president and CEO Phil du Toit said.
