On August 1, 2024, M2i Global, Inc. (“the Company”) appointed Anthony Short, a seasoned international business executive, to its Board of Directors, as a director.
Mr. Short, 65, is an experienced public company director with over 30 years in the hard rock mining and oil and gas sectors, both internationally and within Australia. Mr. Short has a demonstrated history of working in the venture capital and private equity industries, and has sound experience in corporate governance in both the public and private sectors. Mr. Short is skilled in investor relations, analytical skills, asset management, management, and corporate development. Additionally, Mr. Short is a strong business development professional and a proven business innovator, with commercial delivery of cutting-edge propriety mining technology developed in conjunction with AusIndustry and the University of Adelaide, South Australia.
Mr. Short has been the Chairman of Reforme Group since 2018 and the company now successfully operates the Frances Creek iron ore mine in the Northern Territory. Reforme, in conjunction with AusIndustry and the University of Adelaide, South Australia, has developed a ‘World-First’ ore sorting technology that allows low grade iron ore to be beneficiated to Direct Shipping Ore (DSO). Reforme holds the propriety technology rights for this beneficiation process and are now in talks with other industry groups who are interested in using this advanced technology to beneficiate their lower grade ore, making it amenable to offshore shipping. Reforme successfully entered into a working partnership with Anglo America in early 2020 which saw the first trial shipment of beneficiated ore leave Darwin Port in June 2021.
Reforme, through their partnership with AusIndustry and the University of Adelaide, are commencing works on their second research and development project which is based on multiple commodity extraction from epithermal polymetallic Au, Ag, Co, Cu deposits. Reforme is a privately owned Australian company which is 30% owned by the Traditional Landowners. The company provides employment and upskilling opportunities to the local Northern Territory communities.
Additionally, Mr. Short is chairman and founder of the Nova Terra Institute. The Nova Terra Institute (“Nova Terra”) is an Australian research and development institute with a mission to address real-world problems by facilitating a synergistic collaboration between industry, academia, and other likeminded research organizations. By linking advanced science with practical applications, the not-for-profit aims to facilitate the creation of commercially viable solutions that address critical environmental concerns for the betterment of society and the protection of our planet. We foster collaboration and support the innovation efforts of Australian businesses and thought leaders, driving improvements in critical mineral recovery, mine waste rehabilitation, recycling, and renewable energy supplies.
Mr. Short is Chairman of Komodo Capital which is an Australian based, internationally focused corporate finance advisory firm which specializes in mergers and acquisitions. Komodo currently holds mandates with the Company to facilitate transactions in Australia .
Mr. Short holds a Bachelor of Physical Education and a Bachelor in Commerce from the University of Western Australia in 1979, a Graduate Diploma of Finance from Curtin University Western Australia in 1983, and is a member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors.
