VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Apr 27, 2015) - International Montoro Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:IMT) (the "Company" or "Montoro") is pleased to announce a further addition to its Advisory Board with the appointment of Everett F. Makela, P.Geo.
"We are pleased to have Everett Makela of Sudbury, Ontario join our Advisory Board," said Gary Musil, CEO and President of IMT. "He brings over 30 years of exploration experience and solid expertise to the team."
The Sudbury native began his career in 1981 as a geological assistant with pre-Vale Inco. During his career with Inco and Vale, Everett held roles of increasing responsibility in settings ranging from grassroots evaluations to near-mine resource definition. By the time he retired in 2012, Makela was Vale's principal geologist for North America. "I've worked alongside some of the leading experts in nickel exploration and benefited greatly from access to the resources of leading global nickel companies," he says. "My experience spans the gamut from target generation, design and implementation of exploration programs, creation of joint venture and alliances, through to the resource definition stage."
Everett brings wide-ranging Canadian and multinational exploration experience to the team, along with "years of focus on Sudbury and Voisey's Bay that have provided me with a strong background in world-class mineralized systems and the business of building mines." In fact Makela served on the Inco team that conducted initial due diligence prior to the multi-billion-dollar Voisey's acquisition.
Everett holds an Honours Bachelor of Science in Geology from Laurentian University, and is a member of APGO, PEGNL, PDAC and SEG. He is currently VP of Exploration for Equitas Resources Corp., and a Director of the private exploration consulting firm EFMX Consulting Ltd.
