Sprott Gold & Precious Minerals Fund

The Sprott Gold and Precious Minerals Fund is an RRSP eligible mutual fund designed to provide investors with portfolio diversification and exposure to the exciting opportunities that we believe the gold and precious minerals sector has to offer.

Effective January 2008, Investment Strategists' Charles Oliver and Jamie Horvat joined John Embry, Chief Investment Strategist, in overseeing the Sprott Gold & Precious Minerals Fund.

Investment Objective
The primary objective of this Fund is to provide long-term capital growth. In order to achieve its investment objective, the Fund invests primarily in gold, gold certificates, precious metals and minerals, the certificates relating to such metals and minerals and/or in equity securities of companies that are directly or indirectly involved in the exploration, mining, production or distribution of gold and precious metals and minerals.

Who Should Invest In This Fund?
This Fund is suitable for those investors who seek capital appreciation and portfolio diversification by having some exposure to the gold and precious minerals sector. Investors should be comfortable with high investment risks and short-term volatility as this is a sector specific fund. Investors should also have a medium to long-term time horizon.
