The
Toronto Stock Exchange and the TSX Venture Exchange are the leading stock
markets in the world for mining companies, with 90% of all global equity
financings being undertaken on one of those exchanges in 2011. Many significant
mining companies are incorporated or headquartered in British Columbia and, as
such, are regulated by the British Columbia Securities Commission, with whom
Farris lawyers regularly interact. We are well attuned to the current
issues facing the mining industry.
We
regularly advise on public and private debt and equity financings, mergers and
acquisitions, reorganizations, mining asset sales, joint venture and
partnership agreements, project and structured financings, securities law and
stock exchange compliance, disclosure requirements including National
Instrument 43-101, corporate governance, shareholder matters, proxy battles,
environmental matters and general litigation. In addition, we also do
British Columbia mineral tenure and title work. We advise mining companies as
well as other participants in the mining industry.
We
currently act for several mining companies, including the following:
We
act for Copper Mountain Mining Corporation with respect to all of its legal
matters. In 2011 Copper Mountain opened the first mine in British
Columbia in over a decade. Our work with Copper Mountain has included:
- negotiating and formalizing its strategic
alliance with Mitsubishi Materials Corporation,
- a series of public financings,
- a $162 million senior credit facility and
- a $160 million subordinated loan facility.
We
act for Copper Fox Metals Inc. with respect to all of its legal matters.
Copper Fox is developing the Schaft Creek Mineral Deposit located in NW British
Columbia, one of the largest undeveloped copper porphyry polymetalic deposits
in North America. Our work with Copper Fox has included:
- multiple financings in excess of $20 million in
2011, and
- acquisitions of mineral tenures adjacent to the
Schaft Creek Mineral Deposit.
We
act for PolyMet Mining Corporation in connection with all of its Canadian legal
matters, which have included a strategic marketing agreement with Glencore AG,
as well as several debt and equity offerings involving Glencore AG aimed at
financing the development of its copper/nickel/precious-metals project in
Minnesota.
In
addition we have acted on the following matters:
- Acted for Potash One Inc. in connection with a
$434 million negotiated cross-border cash take-over bid made by K+S
Aktiengesellshaft for the Legacy Project, a US$2.5 billion project to
develop the first new potash mine in Saskatchewan in 40 years.
- Acted for TNR Gold Corp. and its subsidiary,
Solitario Argentina S.A., in litigation against MIM Argentina

the Cigar Lake project in Northern Saskatchewan, now the world’s second
largest high grade uranium deposit.
