I know Alan from the FDN project in Ecuador. Alan did excellent work in working on the resource estimate for FDN during a period of intense activity on the project with very rapid delivery of data to the mineral resource team. Alan worked well with all members of the team, both in Ecuador and in Canada.

testimonial

I worked with Alan on the Condor project in Ecuador with Aurelian Resources Inc. As our database manager, IT and resource modelling guru Alan did an exceptional job on this remote project. He setup our onsite geological and assay database, GIS, Resource Modelling and IT systems as well as managing and training Ecuadorian staff to a very high level.
Having the data in a format that is secure and easy to interpret is key to an exploration project and Alan was a very important member of the exploration team during the exploration phase that led to the discovery of the FDN epithermal Au-Ag system. His 3D modelling skills were very important to our understanding of the buried system and the planning of the resource definition drilling.
It was a pleasure to work with Alan and I look forward to doing so again in the future.

Conocí a Alan en Aurelian Ecuador y me dio una muy buena impresión desde el inicio ya que fue una de las pocas personas extrovertidas de la empresa que me hizo sentir bienvenida desde que me dio un apretón de manos.
Trabajar con él es sencillo, no se complica con nada y siempre esta dispuesto a colaborar con sus compañeros de trabajo.
Cuando se fue Alan de Aurelian, dejo un vacío importante entre todos nosotros. No es facil encontrar gente como él.

ALAN ES UNA PERSONA PROACTIVA, DEMOSTRÓ MUCHA DISCIPLINA MIENTRAS ERA ESTUDIANTE UNIVERSITARIO Y CUANDO INGRESÓ A MINERA MANHATTAN DEMOSTRÓ SEGURIDAD Y CONFIANZA EN SÍ MISMO, PERO SOBRE TODO ALTO GRADO DE RESPONSABILIDAD.

testimonial

Conocí a Alan cuando empecé a trabajar en el Proyecto Aurelian Ecuador, a fines del año 2006. Nos conocimos en el campamento del proyecto: siendo Alan y yo peruanos, nos conocimos en Ecuador.
Este proyecto fue especial de varias maneras, y una de ellas es que el equipo que trabajó en él era unido e integrado, como hermanos que integraban en el trabajo responsabilidad.
Así, cuando llegué al proyecto me sentí desde las primeras horas integrado a este grupo humano, cálido y cariñoso hasta para con un desconocido. Siempre me sentí muy cómodo con este equipo del proyecto.
Alan era parte de este equipo humano, y tiene las cualidades que he mencionado. He visto trabajando a Alan (desde lejos y sin yo conocer su trabajo), administrando con eficiencia los sistemas informáticos del campamento en una zona remota y difícil, geográfica y climáticamente hablando. Y he visto como día a día iba trabajando lo que después terminó siendo el modelamiento en 3D del yacimiento descubierto por el Proyecto Aurelian.
Tengo claro que donde esté y lo que se que haga, lo hará bien, y en el camino será amable y generoso con los demás.

As a VP Exploration of Timmins my experience with Alan has been rewarding and constructive, the interaction has allowed me grow profesionally and also serve reliabily to the company that I represent.

testimonial

I worked with Alan in Ecuador before he joined Micon International. i was impressed with his skill with IT, especially the database that he built for Aurelian Resources for the Fruta del Norte/Cordiller del Condor project. So impressed in fact that i later hired Alan and Micon to create an equivalent database for Malbex Resources projects in Argentina and Peru when i was VP Exploration. Alan was also a principal resource geologist for mineral resource estimates that Malbex contracted from Micon. He has strong geological knowledge, which combined with his IT and engineering background makes Alan a valuable member to several different types of studies that the Micon team may undertake.
