In March 2005 he was honored with a Special Achievement Award by the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada for his lifetime commitment to prospecting and for his discovery of the Angostura gold-silver project in north-east Colombia.

Born in France, Mr. Spat worked as a mining engineer in several countries in Europe before immigrating to Canada. Upon his arrival in Canada, he first went to work for Mindamar Metals and then Malartic Goldfields.

In 1993 he became involved in the formation of Greystar Resources and served as its Vice President of Exploration and a Director until 1999. During his term there he set them up with their now burgeoning Angostura gold deposit in Colombia.

Mr. Spat joined Solid Resources in 1999 as Vice President, Mineral Exploration. Mr. Spat, who is fluent in Spanish, was very instrumental in the Company acquiring the Doade-Presqueira concession in northern Spain.

In addition, he speaks several foreign languages.

Mr. Joerg Schuetz, CEO states, "It would be difficult to find a more distinguished and experienced exploration geologist than Mr. Spat. His stellar work history combined with his extensive knowledge of Spain, in particular our Doade-Presqueira concession, is a significant step for us. It is time for Solid to move forward and position itself for future growth."
