Her leadership has driven significant resource growth and discovery efforts, enhancing Coeur's portfolio of silver, gold, zinc, and lead deposits. Prior to Coeur, McGrath spent 15 years at Teck Resources Limited, rising to Exploration Manager for copper and other base metals in Western Canada and the United States.
