Cerro de Pasco Resources Appoints Professor Bernhard Dold As Chief Technology Officer
MONTRÉAL, June 30, 2020 - Cerro de Pasco Resources Inc. (CSE:CDPR) ("CDPR" or the "Company") is excited to announce the appointment of Professor Bernhard Dold as Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of the Company. Dr. Dold has more than 25 years of experience in environmental mine waste management and sustainable mining around the world, with special emphasis on Peru and Chile. He has published over 70 papers, including three highly influential papers on the mine waste of Cerro de Pasco itself.
Professor Dold has, for over a decade advocated the virtues of reprocessing the immense over-ground waste deposits at Cerro de Pasco, not only as a means to permanently stem the production of acid water but also to exploit all values still contained there for the benefit of the local economy. Part of Bernhard Dold's unique proposition is to conceive multiple solutions towards a "zero waste" result. At a recent assembly hosted by the Mayor of Cerro de Pasco, he expressed his long-felt ambition to see Cerro de Pasco showing the world how to turn a nucleus of destruction into a nucleus of sustainable growth.
CDPR's decision to appoint Professor Dold as CTO is a strategic one, aimed at boosting the Company's research and development work to optimise solutions for re-treating tailings and waste at Cerro de Pasco. Bernhard's knowledge will undoubtedly guide the Company in its commitment to engage the latest technologies and know-how in every sphere of its business.
