welcome James to the Bunker Hill Team. His deep understanding of
the Silver Valley Geology and his hard-won project management and
leadership skills will immediately enhance our exploration and
development capability at this exciting time for the mine.”
Mr. Stonehouse is a highly seasoned exploration
geologist with 45 years of experience, including 20 years at the
Vice President level, providing leadership to exploration teams
with track records of discovery and value creation in both

development across their portfolio of assets, including the Galena
mine, only seven miles away from Bunker Hill along the Silver
Valley, Idaho. Prior to this, he has led multiple development
projects in the Americas as Vice President Exploration/Operations
or General Manager and has a long and proven track record of value
creation and sound project management.
Mr. Stonehouse earned both his BA and subsequent
MA in Geology at Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, USA.
Mr. Stonehouse commented: “The opportunity to
join Sam and the new Bunker Hill team is very exciting given
significant potential of the mine and their silver-focused
exploration strategy. I look forward to playing my part in helping
Sam to explore and then unlock its world-class potential”.
