First 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.
