Patrick Chance

Project Manager, Windfall Lake

Patrick Chance has more than 40 years world-wide experience in the minerals industry from regional mapping through exploration, development and mining of metals, industrial minerals, aggregates and coal. He has worked for small and large corporations and consultants and has himself consulted to both the private sector and government.

He gained a technicians diploma from the Haileybury School of Mines, followed by a B.Sc (Applied Science) in Geological Engineering and an M.Sc. in petrology from Queen's and the University of Western Ontario respectively. He is registered as a Professional Engineer in Ontario.

At Tintaya, Peru he developed the initial reserve on a complex skarn deposit through the judicious application of a limited drilling budget while meeting stringent quality and time specifications. At Mina el Limon, Nicaragua, a Cuban and Eastern Bloc-trained technical team was adapted to Canadian exploration and development practises, allowing the team to maintain reserves for more than a decade. In 2001, with a fellow consultant, he developed a programme that allowed First Nations communities along the west coast of James Bay to successfully collect kimberlite indicator mineral samples for and to the prevailing specifications of the Ontario government. The work covered a 400 kilometre square portion of the James Bay Lowland. In the early 1990's a review of Ontario's map depiction of claims provided the conceptual framework for the delivery of successive versions of CLAIMAPS, Ontario's award-winning, on-line mining title, enquiry system.

He has completed regional mapping in desert environments along the eastern frontiers of Iran, where local tribesmen and villagers became integral to the project providing logistic support and knowledge of local geology and mineral occurrences, allowing the project to be completed with greater efficiency and effectiveness. He has successfully engaged First Nations in Central America and Canada developing an appreciation of the mutual benefits of well executed exploration and development programmes.

He currently manages Noront's Windfall Lake underground exploration project that combines the skills and ingenuity of mining and civil contractors, engineers, geologists, technicians and environmental scientists to effectively explore a complex gold-bearing property within a rigorous permitting and regulatory environment.
