EARTH SEARCH SCIENCES APPOINTS GLOBAL EXPLORATION EXECUTIVE TO
NEWLY CREATED POSITION OF VICE PRESIDENT
MCCALL, Idaho--Brian Savage, president of Earth Search Sciences, Inc.,
today announced the appointment of international mineral exploration expert
Robert Stewart as, vice president--exploration,
"We are extremely fortunate to have Bob Stewart join ESSI to contribute
his more than 20 years of mineral exploration experience to our company," Savage
said. "We are rapidly moving into the application of our proprietary
hyperspectral remote sensing data collection and processing to identify quality
mineral exploration prospects, and Bob's experience will be invaluable in that
endeavor."
Stewart was formerly senior geologist for international exploration for
Falconbridge Ltd., a major Canadian exploration and mining company based in
Toronto. His experience with Falconbridge since 1980 was focused on generating,
developing and managing integrated exploration programs throughout Canada and
abroad, including the use of traditional remote sensing technologies. Prior to
joining Falconbridge, Stewart gained extensive practical, field-based experience
with Newmont Exploration, Getty Mines Limited, Texasgulf and on government
geological surveys.
Stewart holds a Bachelor of Science degree in geology with honors
from Mount Allison University and a Master of Science degree in geology from
Carleton University.
"Joining Earth Search Sciences at a time like this is extremely
exciting because ESSI's Probe I hyperspectral technology can now be applied for
the first time to explore vast regions for indications of significant mineral
deposits," Stewart said. "High precision and high resolution data collection
plus rapid processing means ESSI and its partners will be able to explore
faster, better and cheaper than previously possible.
"This will offer strategic advantages that will not only keep
ESSI on the leading edge of applied hyperspectral technology but in the
forefront of global mineral reconnaissance. Mineral discoveries from these
surveys will then be developed by the ESSI team and its partners to maximize
shareholder returns. I look forward to joining my new colleagues in the success
promised by this exciting growth venture."
