Our Firm
Sun Valley Investments ™ (SVI) is a private investment
firm focused on the precious metals mining industry with portfolio companies and branch offices in the Americas, Europe and Asia.
Our senior leadership team has several decades of experience in mining and investment companies and combines investment skills across diverse asset classes with hands-on experience at both senior and junior companies in the precious metals mining and refining industry.
The firm finances the entire precious metals supply chain: mineral exploration, mine construction, production, processing and refining.
Strategy
​
In order to meet long term demand, we believe the metals and mining sector requires focused investment capital from knowledgeable investors that understand the volatility of commodity cycles.
​
Sun Valley's investment strategy seeks to invest in sustainable development projects and operations with growth potential, low cash costs of production, or the operating flexibility to insulate against volatility of the commodity markets.
​
Our quantitative team focuses on data-driven decisions using Machine Learning, Generative AI, and statistical tools mixed with a deep understanding of the financial markets. Leveraging Python and R programming languages and software like Jupyter, Dash, Options-Lab, and Bloomberg, our team extracts valuable insights from vast datasets to inform investment decisions. This data-driven approach enables us to identify promising opportunities and navigate complex market dynamics with more precision.
By integrating advanced data analytics into our investment strategy, we aim to achieve superior risk-adjusted returns for our investors.
