Fitzroy Minerals Inc. (TSXV: FTZ, OTCQB: FTZFF) announced the appointment of Mr. Victor Flores as a Non-Executive Director, effective January 6, 2026. Mr. Flores brings decades of experience in resource capital markets, having served as a portfolio manager, chief investment officer, managing director and senior mining analyst at HSBC, and a portfolio manager for Paulson & Co. Since 2018, he has been a mining sector consultant for senior gold companies and investment advisors, including six years as Director of Strategic Projects for Orion Resource Partners.
Mr. Flores holds a Bachelor’s degree in Geological Sciences and a Master’s degree in Energy and Mineral Resources from the University of Texas at Austin and has been a CFA charter holder since 1992. Campbell Smyth, Chairman of Fitzroy Minerals, commented: “We are very pleased to welcome Victor to Fitzroy Minerals. Victor has a deep understanding of the sector that encompasses both the bottom-up impact of geology and asset-level results as well as the top-down impact of capital flows and economic cycles, and everything in-between. His experience strengthens our governance as we continue to advance our portfolio in Chile.”
The appointment is subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange, and no security-based compensation has been granted in connection with this appointment. This move is significant because Fitzroy Minerals is focused on exploring and developing mineral assets with substantial upside potential in the Americas. The Company’s current property portfolio includes the Buen Retiro Copper Project near Copiapo, Chile; the Caballos Copper and Polimet Gold-Copper-Silver projects in Valparaiso, Chile; the Taquetren Gold Project in Rio Negro, Argentina; and the Cariboo Project in British Columbia, Canada.
The addition of Victor Flores, with his extensive background in capital allocation and mining analysis, is expected to provide valuable strategic guidance as the company advances its projects, particularly in Chile.
