About Us

Global Resource Investments, Ltd. is a full service brokerage firm that focuses on natural resource investments worldwide. Led by Chairman Rick Rule, the company has built a national reputation for its specialist expertise assisting high net worth individuals, corporations and institutions take advantage of global opportunities in the oil and gas, mining, alternative energy, agriculture, forestry, and water industries.

Global provides advisory and transactional services, including equity and debt trading capabilities on most international exchanges. A separate unit of the company raises equity capital for small corporations, primarily in the resource sector. We provide services to clients on both a domestic and international level.

From its very beginning in 1994, led by founder Rick Rule, the company has focused on the resource sector. Rick and the Global team have been highly recommended by distinguished financial writers such as Bob Bishop, the late Jim Blanchard, Bill Bonner, Doug Casey, Adrian Day, Paul van Eeden, Richard Maybury, Jack Pugsley and others.

It is the company’s firmly held belief that it can help its clients best through an unswerving focus on natural resources. While any traditional broker can help you buy and sell shares of IBM, most would be lost when asked to buy an emerging Australian uranium producer. Definitely not the case with the specialists at Global Resources.

Our focus is on companies with a market capitalization below $250 million that don’t attract research coverage from traditional brokerage firms. These junior resource stocks carry with them a reputation for being run by liars and thieves. Unfortunately, the actions of a few have tainted the image of the entire sector. Without question, junior exploration companies are a highly speculative group and are not suitable for most investors. However, we believe that there are attractive opportunities to participate in this vital sector of the economy. It is important for those investors who choose to speculate that they are able to assess the inherent risks against the upside profit potential of every opportunity presented to them. Because most investors do not have the training to assess the results of mineral exploration, it is crucial to use a firm that possesses that capability.
