Trident did not outline any specific project type it wanted to buy, with the selection criteria including "assets in the advanced exploration, pre-production or production stage … with a specific focus on the precious and base metals sectors along with ‘battery industry' related minerals".
Despite the vague plans, Trident non-executive chairman James Kelly has assembled a strong group of investors, including LIM Asia (15.9%), Tribeca Global Resources (12.7%) and entities linked to Ashanti Capital (8.3%).

Kelly is joined by Ashanti broker Carmichael Olowoyo and lawyer Sam Delevan Quinn on the board.
The company has £4.1 million with which to find a project following the IPO.
