In a June 1 research note, Laurentian Bank Securities analyst Jacques Wortman reported that Troilus Gold Corp. (TLG:TSX; CHXMF:OTCQB) appointed Richard Harrisson to its newly created chief operating officer (COO) position.
"As Troilus project development continues to advance through the prefeasibility and feasibility study phases, the appointment of a new COO is timely and will assist with the detailed engineering and predevelopment work required," Wortman commented.
As Troilus Gold's COO, Wortman indicated, Harrisson will be responsible for all Quebec operations, including meeting key engineering milestones. Those include a prefeasibility study, expected in Q4/21, and a subsequent feasibility study, expected in 2022. Also, he will oversee environmental, permitting and First Nation consultations in addition to day-to-day activities and site logistics. Harrisson will report directly to CEO Justin Reid.

Most recently, Harrisson was a director of project evaluations at Canadian Malartic. Prior to that, he worked in the areas of mine design, construction, permitting and operations for various mining companies, including Agnico, Premier Gold, Xstrata, Cambior and Aur Resources. Harrisson holds a bachelor's degree from Quebec's Université Laval in mining and mineral engineering.
