- Sprott Junior Gold Miners ETF (NYSE Arca: SGDJ) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks investment results corresponding, before fees and expenses, generally to the performance of the Solactive Junior Gold Miners Custom Factors Index (SOLJGMFT). The index tracks the performance of small-capitalization gold mining companies listed on regulated exchanges, with a focus on firms having market capitalizations typically between $200 million and $2 billion; it emphasizes junior gold producers weighted by revenue growth and exploration companies weighted by stock price momentum, with semi-annual reconstitutions in March and September. The ETF holds approximately 26 positions, including key holdings such as Bellevue Gold Ltd., Turk Altin Isletmeleri AS, Aris Mining Corp., Seabridge Gold Inc., and Novagold Resources Inc.; it provides investors with targeted exposure to the materials sector, particularly gold mining equities of developers and explorers, rather than physical gold or broader mining operations. Launched on March 30, 2015, and managed by Sprott Asset Management USA, Inc., with ALPS Advisors, Inc. as sub-adviser and ALPS Distributors, Inc. as distributor, the fund is headquartered in Darien, Connecticut. SGDJ serves institutional and retail investors seeking leveraged plays on gold price movements through junior miners, with global holdings domiciled primarily in Canada, Australia, and other regions including Turkey, the United Kingdom, and South Africa; its net expense ratio stands at 0.50%, with total assets under management of approximately $325 million as of December 2025. In September 2025, the fund implemented a one-off modification to its underlying index methodology, raising the market capitalization ceiling from $2 billion to $3 billion to accommodate the exceptional year-to-date performance of junior gold miners exceeding 90% amid surging gold prices, thereby preserving index integrity and diversification. The ETF continues to reflect strong momentum in the gold mining sector, with year-to-date returns surpassing 149% as of November 2025 and recent annual distributions including $2.18 per share in December 2024.
