Advisory
Shawn Ryan
Technical Advisor
Well-known prospector and entrepreneur Shawn Ryan joined T2 Metal’s Advisory Board in 2025 to support the Company’s activity in the Yukon. Shawn is recognized for his innovative and systematic approach to gold exploration, which has been credited with sparking a “second Klondike gold rush.” His career is marked by a methodical approach to sampling, including development of a novel auger soil sampling technique, a method particularly effective in the Yukon where thick soil layers often obscure bedrock.
Shawn Ryan’s work led to several significant discoveries including the Golden Saddle and Arc deposits, which became part of the multi-million ounce White Gold Project acquired by Kinross Gold, and the Coffee project, which was sold to Goldcorp (now Newmont Corporation) for $520 million. His contributions to the industry have earned him numerous awards, including the Bill Dennis Award for prospecting from the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC). Shawn’s work is seen as a major factor in modernizing exploration in the Yukon and drawing new attention to the territory’s mineral potential.
We look forward to drawing on Shawn’s skills, knowledge and companionship in the hunt for Yukon gold.
