We are pleased to announce that John Fortuna has joined the FloSolutions team! John is a geologist and hydrogeologist who brings almost 25 years of global experience to the company. His focus is mine water management and risk mitigation for mining projects at all phases of development, from permitting and exploration through construction, operations, and closure.

“I am very excited to join the strong technical team at FloSolutions to help establish our office in Ecuador. Ecuador is in a unique position to support the global transition to green energy, with vast undeveloped resources of key minerals like copper. Mining can help diversify and revitalize Ecuador’s economy if projects are developed in an environmentally and socially responsible way, and effective water management is a key component of this strategy.  I look forward to working with FloSolutions, our clients, and stakeholders in Ecuador to solve challenging problems and implement effective water management practices”.

John comes to FloSolutions from Golder Associates, where he led a groundwater team in Brisbane, Australia. He previously spent several years living in Lima, Peru where he built and led a Mine Water team of geochemists, hydrologists, and hydrogeologists for Klohn Crippen Berger.
