Graham has spent the past fourteen years with numerous “Ivanhoe group” companies, beginning with Ivanhoe Mines Mongolia in 2006, and continuing in 2008 with Ivanhoe Australia in the Clonclurry district where he was part of the discovery team for Merlin, the world’s highest-grade molybdenum-rhenium deposit. He is currently working with Ivanhoe Electric to find the next generation of world class discoveries.

David was Executive Vice-President Exploration with Ivanplats Ltd (now Ivanhoe Mines) from January 2008 through October 2016. Prior to joining Ivanhoe Mines he was Exploration Manager, Sediment-Hosted Copper Deposits for Phelps Dodge Exploration Corp./Freeport Exploration. Upon retirement from Ivanhoe in October 2016 David became Senior Advisor, Exploration and Geology for Ivanhoe and also consults for a number of Canadian ventures. David holds a B.Sc. and M.Sc. from the University of Waterloo and a Ph.D. from the Colorado School of Mines. While with Ivanhoe, David was co-leader of the Kamoa Discovery team that was the 2015 recipient of the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada’s (PDAC) prestigious Thayer Lindsley Award for International Mineral Discovery, and co-recipient of AME BC’s 2016 Colin Spence Award for Excellence in Mineral Exploration, for the discovery of the Platreef deposit.

Peter Ogryzlo is an award winning mineral explorationist and recognized authority on BC porphyry copper-gold deposits. His career has taken him from islands in the South Pacific, the rainforests of South America and the Basin and Range of Nevada to the Empty Quarter of the Arabian Shield. He played a critical role in the discovery and development of the MZX deposit at Imperial Metals’ Huckleberry mine, which prevented the mine from closing in 2007. For this discovery and his assistance with extension of mining into the MZO pit, Peter was recognized with the prestigious Spud Huestis award. Peter was also mine geologist for Glencore’s past producing Bell mine, situated in BC’s prolific Babine porphyry copper-gold district. He is a recognized authority on the geology and exploration potential of past producing Bell mine, which is host to a significant resource and exciting exploration potential at depth. ArcWest’s Sparrowhawk project surrounds Glencore’s past producing Bell mine and contains proposed sites for waste and tailings management facilities for Bell in the event it re-enters production. Peter will play a key role in advising ArcWest’s exploration efforts throughout British Columbia, with emphasis on advising exploration in the Babine and Bulkley districts for Bell and Huckleberry-like porphyry copper-gold deposits.

Peter Ogryzlo commented, “ArcWest has assembled a team with the ambition and persistence to make discoveries. These traits will take them far beyond what can be taught. I am pleased to offer them any discovery, development and production experience I have gained in their search.”
