Baraka Ligdi is a capital markets advisory firm connecting West African mining operators with the Canadian junior capital markets ecosystem.
West Africa holds some of the world’s most prospective mineral geology. Canada holds the deepest pool of junior mining capital. Between them sits a gap of language, structure, and trust.
Baraka Ligdi exists to close that gap — advising operators and issuers on both sides of the Atlantic with the technical and cultural fluency the channel demands.
Guiding West African private mining companies through access to Canadian public markets — reverse takeover, TSX-V listing preparation, and transaction structuring advisory.
Strategic counsel for undercovered TSX-V juniors with West African assets — sharpening the equity story, engaging the right capital, and navigating the operating context on the ground.
Sell-side advisory to juniors with producing or near-producing West African assets seeking royalty or streaming arrangements as a capital solution — structuring through to counterparty introduction.
We work with a focused number of clients where our expertise is decisive — not where it is merely adjacent.
Every mandate delivered fluently in English and French — the language barrier that stalls most deals is, for us, a non-issue.
Founders bring deep Canadian financial services experience — capital structuring, due diligence, and the mechanics of the TSX-V.
Genuine understanding of the jurisdictions, the geology, and the realities of operating in the region — not a desk view from afar.
An advisory model designed around the client’s objective — structured for clarity, not conflicted incentives.
Private mining companies in Côte d’Ivoire and across West Africa seeking to access Canadian public capital and the visibility of a TSX-V listing.
