Metal Energy has appointed geologist Charlie Greig as CEO in a management change that reflects a corporate strategy focused on creating value from BC’s Toodoggone Region.

“I am excited to officially step into the role of CEO at Metal Energy, and work alongside the Ore Group to create value from the company’s recently acquired NIV project. NIV has the potential to be Toodoggone’s newest porphyry discovery, having the right geology and alteration, as well as coincident geochemical and geophysical anomalies,” said Charlie Greig, CEO of Metal Energy.

We are fully funded for 2026, having Centerra Gold and Teck as cornerstone investors, and have multiple high-priority targets along a five kilometer long trend that we will drill test in 2026,” added Greig.

Charlie Greig brings a distinguished four-decade career in exploration geology, including a key role as VP Exploration in the discoveries of GT Gold’s Saddle North Cu-Au porphyry and the Saddle South high‑grade gold‑silver system, sold to Newmont in 2021 for $400 million. His extensive track record includes work, principally geologic mapping, on producing and advanced‑stage projects such as Brucejack (Pretium–Newmont), Bisha (Nevsun Resources), La India (Grayd Minerals-Agnico Eagle), and Alamo Dorado (Corner Bay–Pan American Silver), but also includes work in a wide range of roles across the spectrum of hard rock exploration and. Currently, Greig serves as lead technical advisor for American Eagle Gold’s NAK copper‑gold porphyry project near Smithers, British Columbia, which is being explored in partnership with Teck Resources and South32. Greig also serves as executive chairman of Evergold, a Toodoggone, BC–focused gold-silver exploration company.

Metal Energy is a critical metals exploration company focused on copper and gold assets in Canada. The company controls NIV, a fully permitted and drill‑ready copper‑gold‑molybdenum project located in B.C’.s prolific Toodoggone District, a region known for hosting significant porphyry deposits. Metal Energy’s portfolio now includes three high‑potential projects: NIV Project in Toodoggone District, British Columbia; Highland Valley Project in British Columbia; Manibridge Project in Manitoba.
