Giornico Holdings and Advisory, LLC (“GHA”), through its founder, Donald A Pattalock, GHA has over 25 years of professional experience throughout the western United States in mineral exploration, mining, mineral leasing, and royalty return negotiations. GHA’s professional background is rooted in natural resource development with a vast range of project experience that spans from aggregates to industrial minerals, geothermal resources to base and precious metals; GHA brings a skill set to the marketplace that is unmatched in the West.

GHA deploys decades of mineral industry experience developed through a professional career that spans grassroots field experience to the board room of publicly traded companies. GHA has developed a base of professional expertise and management for all levels of mineral estate development, leasing, and royalty stream negotiation and corporate formation.

Our team has over 25 years of direct experience in mineral estate management, royalty reservations and negotiations, and transactional structures for all forms of mineral development. GHA helps land and mineral owners with valuation analysis, marketing strategies, negotiation strategies, risk assessment, corporate structures, and capital allocation.

GHA implicitly understands that every mineral estate and project is unique relative to the source, location, use, impacts, and local politics; however, each mineral project must be driven by the resource itself. Through GHA’s professional team of lawyers, geologists, geophysics, and engineers, we work hard to identify the unique demands and constraints on the mineral resource and work through to a solid process of development, entitlement/permitting, physical development of the project, and the ultimate monetization of the mineral assets through sale, lease, and royalty reservations.
