Whilst non-exhaustive, below are examples of our investments.
Taurus would welcome proposals from small to mid-tier global metals & mining companies nearing or currently in production interested in financing solutions. Taurus does not invest in related industries such as oil & gas, mining accommodation or service companies.
Mining Finance
Taurus provides project and acquisition finance debt to emerging mining and metals companies to finance or refinance project developments. We seek semi-annual income distributions from coupons and fee revenue and real asset return through Structured Equity for life of mine in the form of royalties, offtake of physical metal or warrants.

Private Equity
Taurus invests in small and mid-cap mining companies which have strong growth potential. We invest in private and listed companies; early listing is a peculiarity of the world’s mining industry. The private equity structure is necessary because liquidity is generally lower in the development stage and equity often tightly held. Liquidity generally improves as projects are commissioned, providing an opportunity to divest.
