CEO

In an industry where female employment still sits at around 15%, Susan is a pioneer among women in the male-dominated mining environment. For more than 30 years, she has faced both diversity and inclusion issues and worked endlessly to change them into opportunities. Currently, only one in 20 global mining firms is headed by a woman. When Susan was approached with the idea of this innovative technology she immediately recognized the potential to become reality and assembled a team of forward-thinkers.

Susan, Chief Executive Officer of Eclipse Mining Technologies, leads the company’s strategy and overall direction. Additionally, when she was Chief Operating Officer of Mintec she spearheaded the international expansion, which eventually grew to have at least one office in each continent, creating jobs for 250+ employees. She is a master strategist, fluent in Spanish and Portuguese and amongst other skills has ample experience in international negotiations and corporate management. She is a transformational leader with organizational agility that motivates and empowers her team to be more creative, innovative, and productive.

In her free time, Susan loves horseback riding and training her horses. She has been a participant in The Mining Foundation of the Southwest since 1992 and has served as both a past president of the foundation as well as a board member and is currently serving as Treasurer.
