Trailbreaker Resources Ltd. (TBK.V) announced today the appointment of Charlie Greig, MSc, P. Geo, as a Technical Advisor, a move that signals the company’s intensified focus on copper-gold porphyry exploration in British Columbia. Greig, a BC-based professional geologist with a track record of discoveries and mine development, will guide exploration at Trailbreaker’s Coho, Atsutla, and Liberty projects.
Greig’s career includes involvement in projects that advanced to production, such as La India in Mexico (Grayd–Agnico Eagle), Wolverine in Yukon (Atna-Westmin, Yukon Zinc), Alamo Dorado in Mexico (Corner Bay-Pan American Silver), Brucejack Lake (Pretium), and Bisha in Eritrea (Nevsun). His work on advanced-stage projects includes Ike (Amarc Resources), Red Mountain (Lac Minerals, Seabridge, Ascot Resources), Casino (Western Copper and Gold), and Silbak Premier-Big Missouri (Westmin, Ascot Resources).
Notably, Greig served as Vice President of Exploration for GT Gold Corp., where he led the team that discovered the Saddle North copper-gold porphyry deposit and the high-grade gold-silver zone at Saddle South. GT Gold was acquired by Newmont Corporation in 2021 for C$456 million. More recently, he has been the lead technical advisor for American Eagle Gold’s NAK project, a Cu-Au porphyry project near Smithers, BC, in partnership with Teck Resources and South32 Ltd. He has also advised Kingfisher Metals, Happy Creek Minerals, and Hercules Metals, and currently serves as Executive Chairman at Evergold Corp. and CEO of Metal Energy Corp.
Daithi Mac Gearailt, CEO of Trailbreaker, stated, “We are delighted to welcome Charlie to the Trailbreaker team. His experience working in BC Cu-Au porphyry deposits will be instrumental in guiding exploration at our Coho, Atsutla, and Liberty projects.” As compensation, Trailbreaker issued Greig 100,000 stock options with a strike price of C$0.40 per share for five years, as per the April 16, 2026 news release.
This appointment comes as Trailbreaker continues to advance its portfolio of mineral properties in mining-friendly British Columbia and Yukon Territory. The company’s experienced management team, led by Mac Gearailt, has a proven track record as explorers and developers across Canada, Alaska, and Nevada. The addition of Greig is expected to accelerate exploration efforts, particularly on the Coho project, which is a porphyry target in BC.
The news underscores Trailbreaker’s commitment to leveraging top-tier geological expertise to unlock value in its BC projects. With Greig’s deep knowledge of Cu-Au porphyry systems, the company aims to de-risk exploration and potentially advance new discoveries.
