Jeff Phillips, President of Global Market Development, and an activist investor in the junior resource space, joins us to review the benefits of investing in the prospect generator business model in some of his positions; while still maintaining other positions in pure explorers.  He goes on to unpack the value proposition in 4 different prospect generators that he holds in his portfolio, after participating in various private placement financings.   We also get more perspective on how Jeff evaluates opportunities in mining stocks and the types of management teams and share structure that he likes to see to participate in their financings.

Jeff has been involved in the natural resource space for the last three decades, and is a large strategic shareholder of over a dozen junior companies, and still a significant shareholder in a number of other mining stocks. Jeff also serves as a technical consultant and advisor to several companies in the junior resource space, working on improving their messaging to the marketplace, roster of investors, and liquidity. Even though he doesn’t do many public-facing interviews or write in widely followed publications, Jeff is one of the most influential and well-respected people in the business. You’ll often see him hard at work at mining conferences, doing his due diligence and connecting people to one another.
