Tirex Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: TXX) ("Tirex") is pleased to
announce the appointment of Mr. Fred Tejada, P.Geo., as Vice
President of Operations and Exploration.
Mr. Tejada has 30 years of international mineral industry
experience and has a proven track record, working with both major
mining companies and exploration focused organizations.
For seven years, Mr. Tejada was Country Manager and President of
the Philippine subsidiary company for Phelps Dodge Exploration
Corporation ("Phelps Dodge"). While with Phelps Dodge, Mr. Tejada
was responsible for corporate matters and exploration activities
from project generation, property acquisitions and permitting. In
this role, he led the acquisition of 100% ownership of mineral
rights over Mountain Mines in Batong Buhay and Taysan copper
deposits, deposits with known historical resources, and the
surrounding areas. Mr. Tejada was responsible for building up a
portfolio of promising exploration properties which allowed the
Philippines office to remain active after the other exploration
offices of Phelps Dodge in Australasia were closed.
Mr. Tejada transitions into the role with Tirex from Panoro
Minerals Ltd. where he holds the position of Vice President
Exploration. Panora is based out of British Columbia, Canada and
operates in Peru where he directed the resource definition drilling
of its two major copper projects. He had also been previously
involved in the exploration of the Trend Mine and the Belcourt
Saxon Coal deposits that are now partly owned by Anglo American
(now Anglo Ashanti) in NE British Columbia.
Mr. Bryan Slusarchuk, Tirex Chief Executive Officer, states,
"Tirex is obviously having a transformational year with the
company's recent announcement regarding production plans. As we
plan our growth and transition into mining production, we will
benefit immensely from Mr. Tejada's international experience and
his proven track record with both major mining companies and junior
explorers. This combination will serve Tirex well as it targets
substantial production alongside of continued aggressive
exploration of the Mirdita VMS District."
Mr. Tejada is a Registered Professional Geoscientist (P.Geo) of
the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of
British Columbia (APEGBC), is a member of the Society of Economic
Geologists (SEG), a member of the Geological Association of Canada
(GAC) and a member of the Canadian Institute of Mining Metallurgy
and Petroleum (CIM).
