accepted to join Imperial Mining Group’s Board of Directors.
Mr. Alain Bureau is a Canadian professional
engineer with over 20 years of experience in the mining and
construction sector, having worked in 11 countries across the

acknowledgements, including TSX’s Top 10 exploration companies

mountains as well as in the Atacama desert working on BHP’s
Escondida mine expansion, currently the largest copper producer in
