Financial clarity for mining companies, from exploration to production
We help explorers, developers and producers raise capital, model their projects and make their case to investors, with the rigour a lender or analyst will apply.
Talk to us about your next raise, model or transaction.
Who we work with
Mining companies face long lead times, commodity and currency swings, and capital needs that arrive years before revenue. The financial questions change at each stage, so we start with where you are.
Funding the next drill program or study, framing project economics early, and building investor awareness between news releases.
Cost and margin visibility across the operation, cash flow forecasts under price and currency scenarios, and capital allocation between sustaining and growth spend.
An independent view of project economics, valuation of assets and companies, and diligence ahead of a financing, joint venture or acquisition.
Decisions we support
Each one links to the practice that handles it, so you can go from the question in front of you to how we answer it.
Raising capital for the next phase
Sizing the raise, preparing the financial case and investor materials, and planning the use of proceeds against project milestones.
A project model lenders will trust
An integrated model of capex, operating costs, production and financing, with the commodity, currency and schedule sensitivities lenders test.
Reaching investors between news releases
Independent equity research that explains the asset, the catalysts and the risks to the investors a junior miner needs to reach.
Valuing an asset, a stake or a company
Valuations for financings, option and royalty deals, shareholder matters and transactions, built on the project model rather than rules of thumb.
A joint venture, acquisition or sale
Screening targets and partners, testing deal terms against the economics, and supporting diligence and negotiation through to close.
Finance leadership without a full-time CFO
Budgets, cash forecasting, board and lender reporting, and treasury discipline for companies not yet ready for a full-time hire.
Our perspective
A mining company’s financial case should hold up to the same scrutiny a lender or analyst will apply.
Technical inputs such as resources, mine plans and recoveries stay with your qualified persons. We build the financial case around them, and test it the way investors will.
