Description

Mr. Weil has more than 35 years of legal experience, having represented public and private companies and individuals in a wide range of business transactions and securities laws compliance matters. He has experience on virtually every aspect of corporate and securities law, including the preparation of contracts and SEC filings, advice on the law, and development of strategies regarding business terms of deals.

Currently we are already a small producer of alluvial diamonds and gold through the 55% percentage ownership of Mineração Duas Barras Ltda. (“Duas Barras”), a Brazilian producer with the largest alluvial diamond and gold processing plant in Latin America. Diamonds have clearly become an attractive asset class, with good returns, little correlation to equity markets, and lower volatility than gold.

Mr. Ribeiro has substantial experience in both the diamond business and private equity, and experience in managing hundreds of employees. His family controls GAR Mineração S.A., one of the largest diamond-mining companies in Brazil. At GAR, he was General Manager and headed activities and projects in operations, finance, administrative, and mining department and government relations. BMIX has benefited from a very productive relationship with GAR and has located its Belo Horizonte office in the same building as the GAR headquarters.

Mr. Burnstein is the President of Solomon & Solomon, a multi-line insurance broker that he founded in 1982 that works with Lloyd’s of London for special-coverage policies. He has been an investor in hard assets and mineral companies for many years.

Dr. Herrmann has a 30-year experience as a geologist with main specialty in diamond and gold projects. He has produced all types of reports needed for exploration of mineral deposits in Brazil, and has experience in the environmental reports and necessary licensing guidelines.
