Aloro Mining: Appoints Ken Balleweg as Technical Advisor
Good news from Aloro Mining today as they were able to get THE Mulatos expert Ken Belleweg on board as a Technical Advisor. To me it sounds like things are just getting started and I assume Ken was excited enough from the first ever drill holes and the new mapping that he decided to take on this position (given his already packed schedule).
Full NR:
ALORO MINING CORP. – (the “Company” or “Aloro”) is pleased to announce that it has appointed Kenneth J. Balleweg, M.Sc., PGeo. as Technical Advisor to the Company.
Ken Balleweg is an exploration geologist with over 30 years of exploration and production experience, including 20 years in Mexico. He held the position at Placer Dome as Senior Project Geologist at the Cortez and Getchell Mines, Nevada. His work at the Cortez/Pipeline complex lead to the first intercepts in the Gold Rush deposit.
In Mexico, his positions included 5 years as Placer Dome’s Senior Project Geologist for the Mulatos project, Mexico Mine Exploration Manager. He held positions with Alamos Gold over a 14-year period as Exploration Manager, Vice President Exploration, and Manager of Underground Geology. Exploration successes while at Mulatos include the Escondida, Escondida Hanging Wall, Gap, Puerto del Aire Extension, San Carlos SBX, Central Zone, and Far East deposits, that resulted in an addition of over 2M ounces of gold reserves. His expertise is primarily centered on volcanic-hosted epithermal gold deposits, particularly high sulphidation deposits, as well as Carlin-type systems.
He has a B.Sc. in Geological Engineering and M.Sc. in Geology from the Colorado School of Mines, and is a registered professional geologist with the American Institute of Professional Geologists.
