MARK J. MORABITO, B.A., J.D.
Founder, President, CEO

Mark Morabito's record of success in merchant banking and mining is based on his practical perspective that, “It’s not about the risk — it’s about the opportunity.” For more than two decades he has panned through the rubble of risk to extract the gold of opportunity across a range of industries.

Mark has been the founder and principal driving force behind several leading-edge resource development companies, and led two mining companies from initial start-up on the TSX Venture Exchange to full NYSE listings.

At Alderon Iron Ore, which he founded, his skill as a negotiator enabled the company to secure a $400 million agreement with HBIS Group, at the time China’s largest steel producer entering their first investment transaction outside of China in the company’s history.

At Intrepid Metals Corp., where he serves as Chairman of the Board, he is leading a promising copper mining venture in southeastern Arizona.

Mark Morabito started his career as a corporate finance and securities lawyer practicing in Toronto and Vancouver. He supplemented his legal expertise with experience in junior mining, merchant banking and corporate development. Over the course of his career, he has raised over $1 billion.

Originally from southern Ontario, Mark lives and works in Vancouver. He holds a B.A. from Simon Fraser University and completed his J.D. at Western University’s Faculty of Law.
