Samartseva manages KLDC's financial strategy, ensuring compliance amid aggressive exploration spending. Her role is critical as the company navigates capital raises, including potential government grants to offset drilling costs.
McCarthy brings extensive experience in resource capital markets, including CEO roles at acquired mining companies and corporate development leadership. Her expertise in M&A and IPO execution is invaluable as KLDC advances toward potential discoveries.
A co-founder of EarthLabs Inc., Dubé-Bourgeois integrates AI and machine learning into mineral targeting. His success in exploration challenges underscores his innovative approach to mineral discovery.
Under this leadership, KLDC has secured exchange approvals for property acquisitions, launched field programs including drilling at Winnie Lake, and participated in major mining investment events showcasing the company to global investors.
