Darin Smith joins Discovery with over 20 years of experience in financial analysis and corporate strategy in the mining sector.

His experience, particularly at Kirkland Lake Gold, where he participated in significant mergers and acquisitions, positions him well to drive Discovery’s corporate development efforts as the company strengthens its mining portfolio.
Promotions Enhance Company Growth
Forbes Gemmell's promotion recognizes his integral role in steering the Cordero silver project and overseeing the successful acquisition of the Porcupine Complex. His contributions are crucial as the company moves forward in bringing projects to fruition.
