Minerals acquired Inmet Mining Corporation, a Canadian-based mining company

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.
