Aussie iron ore miner Sundance Resources Ltd
(ASX:SDL) has appointed Giulio Casello as CEO.
According to a report in The Australian the company is expected to make the announcement to the market today.
The appointment of Mr Casello comes over three months after Sundance’s entire board perished in a plane crash in West Africa.
Sundance Resources is developing an iron ore project in West Africa and signed key MOU’s last month with two Chinese companies for the delivery of a railway track and port to support the project.
The Australian says Mr Casello will take up the role of head of the company early November.
Robin Marshall, who has held senior and executive positions with the likes of BHP Billiton and Vale Inco, has also been appointed to the board as a non-executive director.
Sundance Resources posted a loss of $10.75 million for the 12 months to June 30, 2010.
