Portfolio construction

Coal is 42% of rights by count. Manganese and iron ore together with PGMs and chrome make up a further 49%, giving the portfolio significant non-coal optionality.

Projects are chosen for funding on diligence readiness and bankability, not to weight the portfolio toward any single commodity. This lets Fund I build a portfolio with exposure to bulk commodities, precious metals and the critical minerals needed for the energy transition.
