Shannon Broughm MSc, P.Geo.

Project Geologist

Shannon received a MSc in Geology from Memorial University of Newfoundland in 2016 specializing in Geochemistry and Economic Geology. Her MSc research titled Mineral chemistry of magnetite from magnetite-apatite mineralization and their host rocks: examples from Kiruna, Sweden, and El Laco, Chile is published in the international journal Mineralium Deposita. She is registered as a Geologist-in-Training with the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta (APEGA).

Her experience includes five years with APEX and five summers with the Geological Survey in Newfoundland and Labrador and Nova Scotia. She has worked on a variety of deposit types with most of her experience related to gold mineralization. Her most recent work includes developing and leading an exploration program targeting high sulphidation and porphyry systems in northeastern British Columbia.
