Future Focused Energy & Natural Resources Investments
Yates Industries LLC is a privately held company focused on oil and gas operated and non-operated assets and placer gold mining projects. We target overlooked opportunities in the energy and natural resources sectors, creating value through disciplined investment, technical expertise, and strategic development. By combining deep industry insight with hands-on operational experience, Yates Industries works to unlock potential in underutilized assets—maximizing performance, efficiency, and long-term returns.
Our Strategy
Yates Industries employs a "back to the future" strategy for our oil and natural gas investments.
We seek to participate in over-looked / under-exploited projects that will benefit from new technologies and methodologies to lower risk and increase economic return. The strategy presents a lower cost of entry, allowing more resources to be directed towards development and innovation.
Current Operated, Non-Operated & Oil and Gas Positions
We focus on exploration and lease acquisition in the Permian Basin and Mid-Continent, holding both operated and non-operated positions, while continually evaluating complementary opportunities in mature oil- and gas-producing regions nationwide.
Mining Projects
Exploration and development focused on proven oil, gas, and mineral regions with strong long-term potential.
