What 3L Capital does

3L Capital Inc. is a private financial advisory and capital markets firm that acts as a co-lead agent and financial advisor on private placement financings for mining and natural resource companies. Operating under the trade names '3L' and '3L Growth Equity' with the tagline 'Empowering Innovative Companies', the firm is built around a five-person leadership team — co-founders and managing partners Dave Leyrer and Shawn Colo, CFO Edip Terbiyeli, Vice President Muj Syed, and Principal Mahsa Zeinali — and is associated with Los Angeles while transacting primarily on the Canadian TSX Venture Exchange and increasingly into Australian markets.

The firm's core service is brokered and non-brokered private placement execution for resource issuers. Mandates evidenced in the input include co-lead agent roles on Tectonic Metals' upsized C$92 million placement for the Flat Gold Project in Alaska (alongside BMO Capital Markets and SCP Resource Finance LP, with Crescat Portfolio Management LLC as largest participating shareholder), financial advisory on Roxmore Resources' C$32.64 million placement for the Converse Gold Project in Nevada (coordinated with Australian broker Euroz Hartleys and cornerstone investor L1 Capital), and financial advisory on Surge Battery Metals' C$25 million placement for the Nevada North Lithium Project. Revenue is generated through advisory and agency fees on these placements; no public fee schedule, fund AUM, or proprietary technology offering is disclosed.

The firm operates with a deliberately narrow vertical focus — gold and lithium exploration in North America, with selective cross-border deals in Australia. Headcount of 1-10 employees and the absence of disclosed subsidiaries, patents, products, or technology infrastructure position 3L Capital as a boutique, relationship-driven advisory practice rather than a scaled asset manager. Geographic reach spans Canada, the United States, and Australia.

Broad incumbents

• Canaccord Genuity (Global Mining Group): Diversified global investment bank with a dedicated mining capital markets franchise.

Comparable as a co-broker/financial advisor on resource placements, and a documented partner with 3L Capital on the Roxmore Resources placement — though primarily serving Australian-listed issuers.
