Corvus hires exploration manager

Vancouver-based Corvus Gold (TSE:KOR) reported on Friday it has hired Chris Brown as the company’s Alaska exploration manager.
Mr. Chris Brown, who brings 15 years worth of experience working on various stages of gold and base metal exploration projects, has a Bachelor of Science degree in Geological Engineering from the University of Alaska.
Since 1997, he has served as senior geologist for Avalon Development Corp. a mining and mineral exploration consulting firm based out of Fairbanks, Alaska.
"Chris's experience with advanced mine development analysis will add considerable depth to our ability to continually assess the progress being achieved by our joint venture partners, who are conducting a total of over $7 million in exploration on our properties this year," said officials.
"In addition, his intimate knowledge of Alaska and its mineral systems will significantly benefit the Company as it pursues new, high-quality exploration opportunities."
Corvus, which was listed on the OTCQX, the highest tier of the OTC market, in early May, is focused on gold mining in Alaska and Nevada.
