Biographical Information

"Mr Morrison is a geologist with more than 20 years experience in mineral exploration and investment. After graduating from university he worked for more than six years in Australia as an exploration geologist, initially around Western Australia, then for North Flinders Mines in the Northern Territory during the initial development of the +5 million ounce Callie gold deposit.

"From 1996-2003 he worked in Tanzania for East African Gold Mines Limited at the North Mara Gold Project in Tanzania. He was responsible for the management of exploration, overseeing the delineation of more than 5 million ounces of resources, including the discovery of the high-grade Gokona gold deposit. In later years, he had additional responsibilities for all in-country development activities, through feasibility and permitting until the commencement of construction. East African Gold Mines was acquired by Placer Dome Inc. in mid-2003 for US$252 million."
