Currently, Mr. Freeman serves as Chief Executive Officer, President and Director of El Condor Minerals, a precious and base metals exploration company. He is also a principal in Downing Teal, Inc., a global recruiting firm serving the natural resources industries with offices in eleven cities in six countries. Mr. Freeman is a co-founder of Orvana Minerals Corp., which operates the largest gold mine in Bolivia and today has a market capitalization of $437 million. He also served as Chief Geophysicist for Placer Dome, a NYSE international gold mining company with annual production of approximately 3.6 million ounces of gold and one million ounces of gold equivalent copper.
