has been instrumental in raising more than $1 billion in capital
for mining projects over the past 20 years and has been
instrumental in the turnaround of Dolly Varden Silver. Both Shawn

move NexGold down the buy-and-build path to becoming a mid-tier
gold producer.”

Financial from 2001 to 2007, where he acquired, grew, and divested
numerous resource companies. Notably, he was the founder of

Mr. Khunkhun has over 20 years of experience in
the capital markets, mineral exploration and development sector
