Premier Gold names COO to oversee projects in Mexico, Canada, US

Premier Gold Mines Ltd. said Sept. 16 that Peter van Alphen joined the company as COO.

Van Alphen will oversee the company's mining and development projects, including the Mercedes gold project in Mexico and the South Arturo gold project in Nevada, and will lead development planning for advanced-stage projects including the Hardrock or Greenstone gold project in Ontario and the Cove open pit gold mine in Nevada.

Prior to Premier, Van Alphen served as the country manager for Canada for Pan American Silver Corp.

Meanwhile, Premier said is starting to plan for future operations with the advancement of permitting, community agreements and detailed technical refinements of a potential mine plan for the Greenstone gold mines open pit project.

In April, the company said it is considering development options for the San Felipe zinc-silver-lead project in Mexico.

Americas Silver Corp. sold its option on the San Felipe project to Premier for US$10.8 million.
