Jurisdiction

Mexico is a member of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) and the World Trade Organization and has free trade agreements in place with over 40 countries. Mexico is a stable mining jurisdiction with a modern legal and regulatory framework. We believe these factors differentiate Mexico from other major copper producing countries that have, at times, experienced greater economic, political, labor relations and similar risks.
