Mr. Cope's management strengths in strategic planning, program development and project execution have resulted in a successful track record of discovery over his 30+ year career in mineral exploration.

Ed brings 21 years' experience managing Barrick's exploration programs principally focused on the 'elephant sized' gold deposits of the Carlin and Cortez gold trends of Nevada. Mr. Cope's ability to recognize, attract and develop/mentor geological talent created the discovery driven exploration team responsible for the significant growth in Barrick's Nevada reserves and resources. The team discovered substantial additional ounces of gold at existing mines, and discovered the huge standalone gold deposits at Goldrush and South Arturo.
