Cleveland-Cliffs Inc announced the promotion of Terrence R. Mee to Vice President, Sales and Transportation effective Sept. 16, 2007.
 
“Terry’s leadership and understanding of our business in North America has been instrumental to our company’s achievements, including our expanding offshore marketing efforts, which have contributed to Cliffs’ transformation to an international mining entity,” said William Calfee, Cliffs’ Executive Vice President, Commercial-North American Iron Ore. “We look forward to his ongoing contributions in iron ore, as well as in Cliffs’ growing presence in the metallurgical coal markets as a result of our recent acquisition of PinnOak Resources.”

He holds an MBA from Case Western Reserve University and joined Cliffs as a Finance Associate upon graduating in 1997. Earlier this year, he completed the Advanced Management Program at the Harvard Business School.
