Blue Lagoon Resources has strengthened its strategic capabilities by appointing Peter Bojtos, a seasoned Professional Engineer with extensive international mining expertise, to its Mining Committee. The addition comes as the company prepares to transition from an exploration-focused organization to a near-term gold and silver producer at its fully owned Dome Mountain Gold Project in British Columbia.
Bojtos brings an impressive background spanning more than five decades in the global mining industry. His professional journey includes hands-on experience in nearly 80 countries, with operational involvement in 30 countries. Throughout his career, he has played pivotal roles in significant corporate developments, including 15 major corporate acquisitions, mergers, and sales involving 24 operating mines.
A graduate of the University of Leicester in 1972, Bojtos has worked across diverse mining environments, from open-pit iron-ore operations to underground base-metal and uranium mines in West Africa, the United States, and Canada. His leadership roles have included presidencies and executive positions at multiple mining companies, demonstrating a track record of successfully restarting and managing mining operations.
Blue Lagoon Resources’ President and CEO Rana Vig emphasized the strategic importance of Bojtos’ appointment, noting that assembling a team of proven industry leaders is critical to the company’s successful transition. The Mining Committee has been deliberately structured to provide technical guidance, operational oversight, and strategic planning expertise.
The Dome Mountain Gold Project represents a significant opportunity, with 15 known high-grade gold veins and less than 10% of the land package currently explored. Blue Lagoon has already achieved a key milestone by obtaining one of only nine full mining permits issued in British Columbia since 2015, positioning the company to target gold production by the third quarter of 2025.
While the company is focused on responsibly and efficiently advancing the project, it acknowledges the inherent risks associated with production decisions prior to completing a comprehensive feasibility study. The strategic addition of Bojtos to the Mining Committee reflects Blue Lagoon’s commitment to mitigating these risks through expert guidance and careful planning.
