Interpid Mines names new senior executive for Indonesian operation

Interpid Mines Limited, an Australian-based gold and silver development and exploration company, has appointed Gary Snow as Executive General Manager, Exploration and New Business.

Snow?s principal role will be to advance and develop the Tujuh Bukit copper-gold project in East Java. He will also be active in evaluating new exploration and development projects for the company.

Snow, who was most recently Early Stage Operations Manager with BHP Billiton, has held progressively senior management roles with a number of mining and exploration companies including Placer Dome and Consolidated Minerals.

Snow, an exploration geologist, has worked extensively on projects in Australia, Africa, Asia and Canada.

?I am particularly pleased to have someone with Gary?s extensive exploration and project management experience joining our team in this incredibly exciting development period at Tujuh Bukit, where our technical team is focused on expanding and building perhaps the largest known, independently held, undeveloped copper-gold project in the world,? said Brad Gordon, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer.
