Mr Malcolm Norris
Group Manager Exploration
WMC Resources Ltd
Malcolm Norris is currently Group Manager Exploration responsible for managing a global portfolio of mineral exploration projects, including managing WMCs exploration activities in China.
Malcolm gained his B.Sc. (Hons) from the University of Queensland, after which he worked at minesites and on exploration projects in Western Australia. This was followed by completion of an M.Sc. at the University of Western Ontario, Canada, and then further exploration experience primarily in the deserts of Australia. This was followed by nearly 5 years based in Manila, Philippines as WMC Country Manager, and then based out of Denver, Colorado involved in various projects in several countries.
My interest is Asia was initially fuelled by visits as a teenager in 1974 and 75, and has developed through living and working in the region over the past 10 years. I find Asia intriguing, challenging, exciting and frustrating. I am keen to take my level of understanding of Asia, and particularly Australia’s engagement with Asia, to a higher level than I currently have.
My other interests include running, rugby, classic cars, art, and many other activities that I am introduced to by my wife, son (15) and daughter(13).
