Gunnison Copper appoints Craig Hallworth CEO, expands leadership team

Gunnison Copper Corp President and newly appointed CEO Craig Hallworth joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss his promotion to Chief Executive Officer and the company’s broader leadership expansion as it advances the flagship Gunnison Copper Project toward key development milestones. The company announced a series of senior leadership and technical appointments aimed at strengthening its operational and technical capabilities ahead of major project catalysts, including completion of a Pre-Feasibility Study targeted for Q2 2028 and associated permit amendments. Hallworth previously served as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, where he played a central role in improving the company’s financial position. During his tenure, Gunnison Copper eliminated secured debt, significantly expanded its institutional shareholder base, and enhanced the overall economics of the Gunnison Copper Project. He also led the company’s strategic repositioning and rebranding as Gunnison Copper, sharpening its focus on the flagship Arizona asset. Management said Hallworth’s deep familiarity with the company’s assets and long-term strategy positions him well to lead the next phase of growth, which includes resource expansion, metallurgical testing, permitting advancement, and project de-risking initiatives. Alongside the CEO transition, Gunnison Copper has strengthened its leadership team across permitting, legal, investor relations, and finance functions, while also adding technical expertise in metallurgy and geology. The company believes these additions will enhance execution across critical workstreams, including stakeholder engagement, permitting, metallurgical programs, and resource development as it advances toward the next stage of project development. #proactiveinvestors #gunnisoncoppercorp #tsx #gcu #otcqb #gcumf #CopperMining #USMining #CopperProject #CopperMining #GunnisonCopper #Copper #Leadership #ProjectDevelopment #ArizonaMining #ResourceDevelopment #Metallurgy #CriticalMinerals
