Romeu Vieira is a PhD, certified EuroGeologist (European Federation of Geologists) & Fellow Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists (AIG). Competent Person for the reporting of Mineral Resources of Lithium (hard-rock deposits) and Tungsten according to CRIRSCO international standards. Member of the Panel of Experts on resources and reserves ¿ minerals and their sustainable use of the European Federation of Geologists. Since 2014 acts as a member of the Fiscal Council of the Portuguese Association of Geologists. In September 2020 he was invited to be part as Vice-President for the development of Mineral Deposits of the Board of ASSIMAGRA (Mineral Resources of Portugal), a mining sector association. For the period between 2021 - 2024 he is a nominated as operational member by the Portuguese Government, trough DGEG, for the European Innovation Partnership on Raw Materials. Educational, scientific and professional background based on the research, exploration, evaluation & extraction of geological resources, with more than 15 years experience in Lithium, Tungsten, Tin & Silica in pegmatite, greisen & hydrothermal deposits. Romeu Vieira is currently the Principal Geologist of Portugal Fortescue, a portuguese subsidiary of Fortescue Metals Group, managing exploration projects for lithium and other critical raw-materials worldwide. He is a Researcher at the ICT research centre (Earth Science Institute, University of Porto, Portugal) with R&D on metallic and non-metallic geological resources. Romeu Vieira is also author and co-author of several paper publications concerning the petrogenesis, mineralogy and exploration of rare-element deposits, namely pegmatite, greisen & hydrothermal mineralization's. Key attributes: 1. Values: not imposed values, rather to empower teams/individuals to leverage their individual morals 2. Mindset: a growth mindset that believes that intelligence can be cultivated, eager to learn, optimism, tenacity & hard work 3. Emotional intelligence: ability to recognize and understand emotions in myself and others 4. Coaching: give time and feedback in a motivational and thoughtful way; "active" empathetic listening and being fully present 5. Decision making: What? Why? Who? How? When? Test ideas out loud and collect feedback. 6. Finally, it's OK to be vulnerable and honest: share transition challenges and frustrations Specialties: - Critical raw-materials (exploration; petrogenesis; geochemistry; mineralogy; mineral resource definition) - Project management (exploration projects; geological mapping; definition of drilling targets; drill planning; logging & sampling; metallurgical & mineralogical sampling; technical progress report writing [CRIRSCO Compliance - JORC, PERC, etc]; QAQC; GIS)
