Mining - Davis LLP
With the exception of Antarctica, every continent participates in the mining sector. The demand for everything from A-Zinc grows. Mining companies in Canada, particularly those with overseas operations need to appreciate local law, politics and culture. They need on-the-ground expertise to employ local resources. They must understand regulations to mitigate their environmental impact. They need to maximize merger, acquisition and tax-saving occasions to sustain operations and experience growth. Understanding the intrinsic issues and identifying suitable opportunities helps keep mining companies competitive. The Davis LLP Mining Law Practice Group represents mining companies at all stages and in relation to all aspects of projects – in Canada and globally. With offices in the Yukon and Northwest Territories, we provide on-the-ground expertise to operations in the north. We act as counsel on initial public offerings, private placements and financings for mining companies based in Western and Northern Canada that operate mines in North and South America, Asia and Africa; we have deep familiarity with associated stock exchanges: TSX, NASDAQ and AIM/LSE. We represent mining companies involved in the extraction of all types of metals and minerals, companies involved in oil sands extraction, as well as suppliers to these companies such as service companies and heavy equipment vendors. |
