Managed Overhead

One of the greatest risks to junior mining companies is the obligations that come with the administration and running of a publicly-traded exploration company. It does make any sense to have a large office or many full-time employees as it poses uneccesarry financial burden on the company. Since 2009, the amount of funding for junior mining companies has been dramatically reduced, and it is necessary to make every dollar work to advance promising exploration projects, making it particularly challenging for Managment.

Experience is King

Experience is not something that is to be taken lightly - it comes from having gotten your hands dirty and experiencing first hand the success and failures of working in the exploration business. Many junior explorers make the mistake of thinking that success comes with little effort and quickly. The old saying that "mines are made, not found" is particularly true and many mines that are operating today have long histories of becoming succesful producers only with focused and sustained exploration effort.

Polical Risk

It is possible to acquire exploration properties almost anywhere in the world, but increasingly we are seeing foreign governments and other individuals take control of mineral resources. It is difficult to find an ore deposit - it is even more difficult to find a deposit in a stable economic and political country. This is why Taranis has focused its exploration efforts in Canada and Finland - they are both economicially and politically very stable, and offer the best prospects of finding an exploration project that can be turned into a mine.

100% Ownership

In exploration it is best to start with 100% ownership of an exploration project. The reason for this is two-fold. First, it returns maximum shareholder value in the event that the deposit makes the transition from an exploration project to a mine. Second, the high-cost and specialized nature of putting a mine into production frequently means that a junior mining company needs to find a business arrangement that will enable the project to be put into production. This could mean Joint Ventures, or other legal arrangements that would require Taranis to give up a percentage of the ownership of the project.
