Golis Minerals

Investors & partners

We secure the ground and the agreements. You bring the capital or the capacity.

Golis Minerals develops mining projects in Somaliland through joint ventures. We take a stake and a management role, and we co-invest — so our return depends on the same outcome as yours.

Why Somaliland

  • Under-explored geology on the Arabian-Nubian Shield, with known gold, gemstone and industrial-mineral occurrences
  • A working mining code and a government actively seeking responsible investment
  • The Port of Berbera and its upgraded corridor cutting export costs
  • A young workforce and long-established artisanal mining to build from

What we bring

  • Ground secured under licence before capital is committed
  • Government and community agreements handled by people who live here
  • Technical work commissioned to recognised international standards
  • A local partner co-invested in the same outcome

What we are looking for

  • Equity and project-finance partners for gold and industrial-mineral joint ventures
  • Operators with plant and mining capacity open to a Somaliland JV
  • Offtake partners willing to pre-commit to supply

How a JV comes together

Structured before capital is committed

We do the origination and de-risking first. A partner comes in once the licence is held and the local agreements are in place.

  1. 01We identify an opportunity and secure the mineral licence.
  2. 02Community and government agreements are negotiated and documented.
  3. 03Exploration or feasibility work is commissioned to recognised standards.
  4. 04A JV is structured; the partner brings capital, plant or offtake.
  5. 05An operator is appointed and the project is built and run.
  6. 06Product is marketed, with Golis managing the local interface throughout.

Early-stage, and honest about it

Golis Minerals is a new company. We do not have producing assets or closed transactions to point to yet. What we have is the local standing to originate and de-risk projects, and founders whose interests are tied to making them work. If that is the stage you invest at, let's talk.
