Lundin Mining Corporation is mining and exploration company engaged internationally in the extraction, development, acquisition and discovery of base metal deposits.
 
The company currently owns five operating mines, extracting copper, zinc, lead, nickel and silver: Neves-Corvo in Portugal, the Zinkgruvan and Storliden mines in Sweden, the Galmoy mine in Ireland and the recently acquired Aguablanca mine in Spain. A further mine, the Aljustrel mine in Portugal, is under development and will be brought into production in the fourth quarter 2007. In addition, Lundin Mining holds an extensive exploration portfolio, including interests in international ventures and development projects such as the world class Tenke Fungurume copper/cobalt project in the Democratic Republic of Congo, which is currently under construction and the Ozernoe zinc project under detailed feasibility study in Russia.
 
In November 2006 Lundin Mining merged with another Canadian mining company, EuroZinc Mining. The merger was a significant step in Lundin Mining's aggressive growth strategy and brought the combined entity to the next level on the global mining scene. Through the merger a leading diversified copper, zinc and lead producer was created. In 2007, Lundin Mining acquired Rio Narcea Gold Mines, Ltd. and Tenke Mining Corp.]]>
