The annual Women in Resources Awards (WIRA), held by the Chamber of Minerals and Energy Western Australia (CMEWA) recognises the outstanding achievements of women in the resources sector and highlights the power of gender diversity.
In 2020, CMEWA received over 100 nominations from a range of companies, across six categories.
Congratulations to Keren Paterson, Managing Director and CEO of Trigg Mining Ltd, on achieving a finalist position in the Outstanding Women in Resources category. This award recognises an individual’s achievements in her career, leadership skills, contribution to the resources sector and broader community, and her resilience in overcoming barriers and accepting new challenges.
Keren joined JSW as a Non-Executive Director in 2017, bringing over 20 years’ industry experience as an accomplished and recognised leader, mining entrepreneur and company director. Keren’s achievements in working to build a world-class industry are second to none, raising millions of dollars for exploration in WA and successfully leading teams from greenfields exploration discovery through feasibility studies, mine development, operations management and international corporate transactions.
