“In four short years, Craig transformed Barrick’s drilling operations from satisfactory to best-in-class. Craig’s contribution to the minerals exploration industry is widespread and recognised significantly improving operating standards, reducing and preventing fatalities and serious injuries, while improving productivity, saving time and money.
Craig was Barrick’s representative on a key multinational collaborative research project – Deep Exploration Technologies Cooperative Research Centre. The largest program by far was the drilling component, and a key outcome was the development of an innovative coiled tube drilling rig.
While at Barrick, Craig invested considerable time to train and develop his team into an integrated team of professionals that our exploration group heavily relied on. Craig’s readiness to guide and share is just one attribute that differentiates him from other subject matter experts. He’s highly regarded and respected. Notably, Craig’s expertise and commitment led to Barrick Nevada’s minerals exploration division instituting best-in class standards, elevating the group to the industry’s forefront.”
