Quantum Minerals Ltd. has grown from a small mineral operation in Zambia into a
multinational mining business in less than two decades, with a global portfolio
of copper and nickel assets in Europe, Africa, Australia and South America.
This phenomenal growth is down to FQM people who have strived to be Bolder,
Smarter and Driven in everything they do.
In March
2013, First Quantum Minerals acquired Inmet Mining Corporation, a Canadian-based
mining company primarily producing copper and zinc from mines in Finland, Spain
and Turkey, with also a major copper deposit under development in Panama, known
as Cobre Panama. The combination of the First Quantum and Inmet assets has
created one of the world’s leading copper producers with a geographically
diversified portfolio of high-quality operations and development projects in
eight countries across five continents.
With a
strategic plan to produce more than 1 million tonnes per annum of copper within
five years, the Company is poised to become the largest, widely-held pure-play
copper producer and one of the top five copper producers in the world.
