Chris Livingstone BSc, P.Geo.
Senior Geologist
Chris is a Professional Geoscientist (P.Geo.) and Qualified Person (QP) with over 12 years of experience focused on North American base and precious metals exploration. He holds a B.Sc. in Earth and Ocean Sciences (spec. Geology) from the University of British Columbia and is registered with Engineers & Geoscientists of British Columbia (EGBC).
Since joining APEX in 2011, Chris has grown his exploration and mining expertise working on multiple projects across the globe with a primary focus on Canada, United States, and Mexico. This experience advanced his knowledge on a diverse set of commodities and deposit types including Archaean lode gold, Carlin-type gold, epithermal gold-silver, polymetallic vein, porphyry copper-gold, and sediment-hosted base metals.
Recently, Chris’ focus is on management of the technical and operational components of exploration projects. His current projects include the Carlin-type Kinsley Mountain and Bolo gold projects in Nevada, as well as the sediment-hosted Storm Copper and Seal Zinc projects on Somerset Island in the Canadian high arctic.
