Stemming from the founder's historic involvement in the mining sector, SUN Group identified this sector as a priority and, since 2001, has been evaluating opportunities and building a portfolio of assets in Russia, India and key other transforming markets, such as Southern Africa.

SUN Mining's current assets fall into four main divisions: gold, PGMs, diamonds and base metals (copper, nickel). Creating a successful mid-tier mining house requires a balanced mix of deposits at various stages of development across its divisions and geographies.

SUN Mining's team of professionals bring experience in mineral exploration and production, capital markets and M&A in emerging markets. Through its management and board, SUN Mining has access to unique deal flow and the network of partners to create additional opportunities for global investors. As with other SUN Group divisions, SUN Mining seeks to enable local resource holders in transforming markets to develop their assets and access international capital and expertise without sacrificing their local and regional imperatives.
