Top Energy/Mining Funds

Does anyone have an idea of who the top energy or mining funds are? I don't mean energy trading, but more like funds that invest in equity or fixed income of energy or mining companies. I'm sure all the big hedge funds and asset managers have a desk that does this, but which are the best?

I can't think of any off the top of my head that invests exclusively in mining/energy, although I'm sure there are. The only major fund that is pretty active in this space that I know of is Passport Capital in SF. They combine top-down macro analysis with bottom-up security research and focus a lot on commodity stocks. Also, I think Alyeska in Chicago does a lot in this space as well.

 

I work for a resource fund, albeit a small one. The bigger ones are still around but not doing so well. Libra Advisors, Sprott, US Global are the big ones that come to mind
