Since 1993, Chesapeake’s management team has a successful track record working in the Americas. The strength of the Company is the ability of its people to recognize prospective geologic settings, generate quality projects and finance their exploration and development. The team’s strategic vision and initiative rewarded Francisco Gold Corp.’s shareholders with the grassroots discoveries of El Sauzal and Marlin – two multi-million ounce gold deposits which became mines with robust economics.

With the acquisition of Alderley Gold Corp., Chesapeake is focusing on progressing the world class Metates project towards production as a sulphide heap leach operation.
