New Mexico Copper Corporation (NMCC) is pleased to announce that W. Ferol Baker
has accepted the position of General Manager for the Copper Flat Project in
Sierra County, New Mexico.
Beginning his mining career with Phelps Dodge in the Silver City area in the
late 1970's, Baker most recently served as Mine Manager of the S.C.M. Franke
mine in Chile. "I'm excited to be returning to New Mexico, I've continued to
keep a home in Silver City and I'm looking forward to assisting in bringing
Copper Flat into operation production," said Baker.
Baker, who will join New Mexico Copper Corporation officially on June 1, 2011,
brings over 30 years experience in the mining industry - beginning his career as
a laborer in the copper mines in the Silver City district. He gained extensive
experience managing and constructing mine sites on three continents (North
America, South America and Africa,) successfully turning around projects that
were in danger of not performing.
"New Mexico Copper Corporation is pleased to have a manager of Ferol's
experience to lead the Copper Flat project," said Kevin Maloney, Chairman THEMAC
Resources. "His knowledge in the industry, the area and the workforce make him a
perfect match to ensure that the project has the proper leadership to achieve
success."
The Copper Flat deposit is located in Las Animas mining district of South
Central New Mexico, about 20 miles Southwest of Truth or Consequences. NMCC, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of THEMAC Resources Group Limited, a Canadian company
listed on the TSX Venture Exchange, completed a transaction for an option on the
mine site in early March, 2011.
Baker is a bilingual English/Spanish, a New Mexico Native with roots in Silver
City, holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Mining Engineering from the
