Mine* Riding the Wave
We are pleased to announce the launch of our signature Mining publication, Mine* Riding the Wave. This is our fourth annual mining review of global trends, providing an aggregated view of the global mining industry as represented by 40 of the world’s largest mining companies.

This comprehensive market report shows that during 2006, the global mining industry witnessed some dramatic events. Takeover activity picked up from its rapid pace in 2005. Consolidation and expansion through acquisition of new assets remains a cornerstone of these cash-rich companies. A number of “mega-deals” were sealed in 2006, with CVRD leading the way, moving abroad to purchase Inco and becoming one of the world’s leading nickel producers.

Report Highlights

Mine* - Riding the wave highlights include:
  • Increased profitability has masked increased operating costs
  • Supply continues to struggle to catch demand
  • There is a “hunt or be hunted” mentality in the industry
  • A more accurate picture is needed for total contribution to Government
