Latin American gold and copper miner operating mines in Brazil, Honduras and Mexico.
Latin American gold and copper miner operating mines in Brazil, Honduras and Mexico.
Sells gold doré and copper-gold concentrate to refiners and smelters at market prices, so earnings follow the gold price and each mine's grade and cost. Mines in three countries spread operating risk.
Moat: narrow (scale, cost advantage). Low-cost Latin American gold mines give favorable margins, though scale trails major gold producers.
