In addition, the Corporation holds investments in junior exploration and development stage companies. The Company prefers to generate partnerships or corporate structures related to the opportunities it generates, which results in the Corporation carrying minority and non-operating project or equity interests and/or royalty interests. Since inception in 1997, our business model and operating philosophy have consistently delivered increased value for shareholders of Altius through cyclical market conditions. The company has built a solid reputation around its percentage of successful mineral project generation initiatives that it intends to further build upon. While the market sentiment for the natural resources sector was somewhat turbulent in 2009 our Company is well prepared to embrace the opportunities of market volatility and/or a down-cycle. Going forward Altius intends to grow its business through its; 1) organic mineral exploration business focused in eastern Canada, 2) exportation of its proven prospect generator business model to other choice jurisdictions, and 3) to prudently deploy its capital in royalty-like investment opportunities throughout the minerals sector. Altius prospered through the last bear cycle because its business plan inherently preserves capital structure and manages risk, thus there are many reasons to be optimistic about the future of Altius and its expanding business strategy.
