"It's great to be on the New Mexico Copper team and to help with the Copper Flat Project," said Deborah Peacock.

Peacock represents natural resources companies worldwide, regarding leading edge technologies, business, and intellectual property strategies. In addition, Peacock is the Chair of the New Mexico Environmental Improvement Board and a Regent at New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology.
