Scott Zelligan

Mr. Zelligan is a geologist with over 15 years of experience in the resource industry. He has had a diversity of practice within the industry, having worked in active underground mining, remote greenfield exploration, and in a wide range of consulting activities, most notably project evaluation and resource estimation.

Mr. Zelligan’s experience with gold in Ontario has spanned his entire career, from working underground in the Timmins camp to running exploration programs in the Northern Abitibi. His experience as a resource estimator, in addition to planning and running drill programs, has given him a unique insight into project evaluation, development, and resource growth potential.

Mr. Zelligan was part of the team at Noront Resources that grew the Eagle’s Nest deposit by sevenfold. He has worked throughout North America, with a particular focus on gold in primary (orogenic) deposits. Most recently, Mr. Zelligan worked closely with Aurelius Minerals as a Senior Geologist to evaluate, acquire, and develop the Aureus Gold deposits in Nova Scotia. He planned drilling and created the geological model for the Aureus East deposit, which led to a maiden resource that more than tripled the previous historic resource.
