Company Goal
MinQuest owns data (both digital and hard copies) on numerous projects throughout the United States and globally. This data is used to add projects and occasionally sold to third parties. We aim to serve our clients by providing the best information we can.
As part of the goal of the company, MinQuest has converted several projects into royalty positions. In some cases, MinQuest has bought royalties.
Company Model
Our business model is to acquire grass roots to resource projects through historic reports and data owned by the company and completing reconnaissance exploration in new areas. We then enlists third parties to further advance the projects, while recouping its holding costs and retaining a royalty through production.
