Dobrotin is considered a global expert in gold exploration with 35 years’ experience and he joins Shanta from Barrick Gold where he was a senior district geologist in Tanzania.
Dobrotin was previously the geology manager at Acacia Mining’s Kenyan operations where he was directly involved in the discovery of the high-grade West Kenya Project, which was acquired by Shanta in 2020.
