“When birds fly in formation there is a leader breaking the still air,
generating a wake of energy flow that propels the whole
team forward. In the Sotho language this leader, or pathfinder,
is called motjoli. In a similar fashion Motjoli Resources is
forging the way forward on the South Africa’s mining landscape.

Growing Junior Resource CompaniesGrowing Junior Resource Companies• True South Africa Juniors are rare in the market
• Market is dominated by foreign juniors
• Foreign juniors have an advantage over locals
– Depth of international markets p
– Sophistication of individual investors
