“From my first introduction to Latin Metals, I’ve been thoroughly impressed by the company’s extensive and well-positioned project portfolio in Argentina and Peru, and how well Keith and his team are executing the prospect generator model,” said Mr. Basha. “Having spent much of my career exploring for epithermal precious metal deposits and executing the prospect generator model, partly in Latin and South America, I’m eager to leverage my experience to help accelerate Latin Metals’ growth and further expand its footprint in these resource-rich regions. The potential for discovery in Argentina and Peru is beyond doubt, and I look forward to being a part of this exciting journey.”
