Cover Letter Résumé
Dear Sir/Madam,
I would like to take this opportunity to provide a perspective as to my skills and strengths.
I have been working as an Executive Officer in the Mining & Resource sector since 2002. In that time, I have successfully
identified and acquired several significant mining projects. I was also responsible coordinated and operated mining operations
and activities, including but not limited to, geological and drilling programs in the U.S. Canada, Australia, China and Latin
America, and consulted on projects on the African Continent.
My responsibilities in the resource sector have included not only the executive duties, however also the operational duties,
fund raising, liaising with Government officials, shareholder relations and investor relations/public relations roles.
Most recently, I co focused IDH Gold, a company focused on acquiring and developing natural resource projects in the U.S.
In 2006 I founded Dominion Minerals Corp, which acquired and then later defined through exploration work, a significant
copper/gold asset in Panama; Cerro Chorcha.
At Dominion Minerals, aside from my role as Chief Executive Officer, I was also responsible liaising with the Government, the
implementation and upkeep of Social Economics Programs with the Indigenous groups living in and around the project, IR/PR,
fund raising, and compliance with SEC regulations.
In 2005 I was also responsible for the acquisition of a world class phosphate project in Australia owned by Legend International
Holdings.
I have raised in excess of $75,000,000 of financing for these various projects and their related operations.
Competent in many areas of business, my current responsibilities ranged from cultivating and maintaining relationships with
potential strategic and business development partners, including major mining companies, Government officials, investment
funds, broker/dealers, electrical utilities, power companies, and more.
Prior to my involvement in the mining & resource sector, as an integral player in the early days of Ambient Corporation, my
abilities as an intuitive leader were in great part responsible for making the fledgling start up into what it is today.
My diligence is apparent in all endeavors, regardless of their relative importance.
In relationships both in and outside the realm of business, I have the ability to capture the attention of people with whom I
come in contact. My forté is not only attention to details, but also people to people relationships. This has not only assisted
me in initiating relationships, but also in maintaining them, and steering them through challenging periods. I am well organized
and intuitive. As a hard worker and fast learner, I possess the capacity to juggle a large number of tasks without neglecting any
of them.
I thank you kindly for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Pini Althaus
