We are very pleased to welcome Calum to our executive team as we are confident he will help us maximize shareholder benefit through the growth of strong relationships within our industry, as the company continues to advance the Dixie property."
Morrison has managed and led negotiations on numerous transactions worth over $5 billion in total; including acquisitions, divestments, joint ventures, and other strategic initiatives.
Most recently, he was a senior member of Teck Resources Ltd's (NYSE:TECK) corporate development team.
