He was responsible for discovery of the Henty gold deposit and major extensions to the St Dizier tin deposit both in Tasmania, as well as resource evaluations of the Kuridala coppergold deposit in North Queensland, the Bongara zinc deposit in Peru and a number of gold deposits in the Cue and Meekatharra Districts in Western Australia. In addition, he led the pmd*CRC's research effort from 2002 to 2007, and therefore has a deep understanding of practical application of the PD Technology to mineral exploration.

Dr Tom Whiting, Non Executive Director (appointed 1 July 2008)

Tom Whiting is currently a consultant, having retired from BHP Billiton last year after a distinguished career covering 30 years.

Dr Whiting was Vice President of Minerals Exploration for BHP Billiton from 2000 to 2004. Earlier in his career, he led the use of innovative reconnaissance airborne geophysical techniques which led to the discovery of the Cannington lead-zinc-silver mine in North Queensland and the development and deployment of the FALCON system, the world's first airborne gravity gradiometer.

Dr Bobby Danchin, Non Executive Director (appointed 11 April 2008)

Bobby Danchin is currently non-executive director of Cluff Gold plc and Mineral Deposits Limited. Both companies are currently bringing gold mines into production in West Africa.
