First Quantum Minerals Ltd. has
grown from a small mineral operation in Zambia into a multinational mining

assets in Europe, Africa, Australia and South America. This phenomenal growth

everything they do.

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

is poised to become the largest, widely-held pure-play copper producer and one
of the top five copper producers in the world.
