Investment Focus

Elba Capital is a privately-funded mineral and royalty platform, investing on behalf of institutions, family offices and high-net-worth individuals through a series of limited partnerships since 2012. Since our founding, Buckhorn has proven its ability to create value for investors while also helping mineral owners achieve their objectives. While Buckhorn maintains a long-term perspective, we return capital through quarterly distributions and opportunistic exits, when beneficial for our investors. Today, we manage a large mineral position in the Eagle Ford Play of South Texas and the Permian Basin of West Texas, primarily in the Midland Basin, and are currently investing through our sixth limited partnership.
