social and governance (“ESG”) policies and protocols, which Intrepid intends to establish in the coming
months,” added Mr. Brophy. “The importance of establishing ESG policies and protocols, including our
planned stakeholder engagement initiatives, will promote sustainable decision-making across our
exploration and development activities. Colleen’s operational and ESG experience as it applies to
copper mining compliments the expertise of our existing board, and Rebecca’s recent permitting
success in the southwestern United States will be invaluable as we advance our Tombstone South and
Mesa Well projects.”
Ms. Colleen Roche is a professional Engineer with more than 20 years of experience in operations,
feasibility studies, greenfield construction, tailings research, community relations and permitting,
primarily in open-pit copper mines. Ms. Roche is skilled in the development of strategic business plans,
budgets, forecasts, ESG reporting and project management. She spent seven years as the Operations
Support Manager at Capstone Mining’s Pinto Valley Mine in Arizona. Prior to her years in Arizona, Ms.
Roche held several operations leadership roles at Minto Mine in Yukon, Canada and spearheaded
Capstone’s first ESG report published in 2014.
Ms. Rebecca Sawyer is a Geologist and an environmental professional with proven success in mine
permitting, stakeholder engagement, project management, mitigation and remediation, and site wide
environmental compliance. Ms. Sawyer is the current Director Environmental Permitting and Community
Relations for Ioneer USA Corporation in Nevada, and was previously the Vice President Sustainability
for Excelsior Mining Corp. She successfully developed the permitting strategy for Excelsior’s Gunnison
project in Arizona, which is the first copper mine permitted in the United States in the past decade.
