I presume he already has BHP which is listed there. What does he want to focus on, base metals, iron ore, oil/gas, REEs, PGMs? Regards Kate  colin_twiggs Member Username: colin_twiggs Post Number: 3180 Registered: 09-2002 Rating: N/A Votes: 0 Friday, May 30, 2008 - 12:19 pm:     Kate, I presume he wants to invest in individual companies and is looking for an investment adviser/broker who specializes in this area. Are there any funds that would fit the bill? Regards, Colin  kate Member Username: kate Post Number: 884 Registered: 04-2005 Rating: N/A Votes: 0 Friday, May 30, 2008 - 02:28 pm:     Colin I've included a couple of links, the first an article about Chinese investment in Australian resource companies and the second a link to Fat Prophets. Fat Prophets can give advice on resource companies and also have a managed fund (SMA)focused on mining and resources. I haven't used them or know of anyone who has, just remember hearing they had a big focus on the resource sector.
