Alta Copper Corp. has made significant changes to its Board of Directors, with the appointment of Dr. Robert J. McDonald and the retirement of Joanne C. Freeze, Sean Waller, and Miguel Inchaustegui. This move comes after discussions with Fortescue Ltd., leading to a reconstitution of the Board.
Dr. Robert McDonald brings with him over three decades of international executive and advisory experience, making him a valuable addition to the Board. His expertise in navigating complex political landscapes and driving large-scale projects forward will be instrumental in the development of the Cañariaco Project.
Following the retirement of Joanne C. Freeze as President and CEO, Giulio T. Bonifacio will now assume the role of Chief Executive Officer. The Board reconstitution is expected to accelerate the development of the Cañariaco Project, with a focus on collaboration with Fortescue, a global mining company with vast experience in base metal mines.
The Company also announced the appointment of Maria Paz Alfaro as Corporate Secretary, further strengthening its management team. The reconstitution of the Board aligns with the Company’s Majority Voting Policy, ensuring a transparent and accountable governance structure.
Alta Copper’s focus remains on the development of the Cañariaco copper project, which is one of the largest copper deposits in the Americas. The Company continues to uphold its commitment to responsible mining practices and sustainable development.
