  • 2008 Annual Report
    2008 Annual Report December 31, 2008 Message from the President To our shareholders, 2008 has been a tumultuous year for base metal mining companies best defined by the collapse of metal prices starting in September 2008. De‐stocking in supply chains, coupled with collapsing demand, has seen base metal inventories rise, prices fall and profits contract. Your company responded early. At the first sign of the sharp fall in metal prices, action was taken to reduce expenditure. Revised operating plans were devised with the objective of ensuring that the key operations were capable of producing free cash flow despite substantial price falls. Those that could not achieve this objective have been sold (Aljustrel), operating plans curtailed (Aguablanca) or closure plans implemented (Galmoy). A clear focus has now emerged centered on our three core assets: the Neves‐Corvo copper/zinc mine, the Zinkgruvan zinc/lead/silver/copper mine and the Tenke copper/cobalt project operated by Freeport McMoRan. During 2008, Neves‐Corvo and Zinkgruvan delivered good operational results with steady, low‐cost production. Capital and operating costs have been reduced, taking care not to impair future production capacity. Neves‐Corvo and Zinkgruvan, as well as the Aguablanca nickel/copper mine, are able to be free cash flow positive at the commodity price levels ruling at the end of 2008. All three mines achieved record tonnage, mined and processed, and metal production exceeded 2007 levels. In 2008, the Company produced 98,148 tonnes of copper, 167,844 tonnes of zinc, 44,799 tonnes of lead and 8,136 tonnes of nickel. Construction of the Tenke copper/cobalt mine in the DRC progressed well during the year with first copper being produced in March 2009.

The TSXV LiquidityPro™ program is optional and introduces issuer-sponsored market making services to TSXV companies under the oversight and governance of TSXV. Market making offers several benefits to growing companies during their formative years. Having a committed market maker can promote market stability when there are gaps in natural liquidity, help to mitigate price volatility, and enhance the trading experience for investors. In fact, based on recent analysis by TSXV conducted between January 1, 2014 and August 2015, companies that engaged professional market maker services experienced a $0.02 decline in their average spread, an 18% increase in the number of days when a trade occurred, and a 6% decline in price volatility measured by the closing price against the 10-day moving average price. Through the program, TSXV companies can select from a pool of pre-qualified TSXV LiquidityPro™ Providers (LPPs), each of which submits a bid across a standardized set of market making metrics along with their related monthly fee.

  • Tmx Group History at a Glance
    TMX GROUP HISTORY AT A GLANCE The following is a timeline of significant events in the organization’s history. 1852 A group of Toronto businessmen met on October 24, 1852 with the intention of forming an "Association of Brokers". The association created that day established the framework for Toronto Stock Exchange. Although they may have traded in shares that were available at that time, no official records remain of the groups' transactions. 1861 A resolution was passed by the association to formally create Toronto Stock Exchange. In its early years, Toronto Stock Exchange trading volume was very modest, amounting to two or three transactions daily. Trading hours were limited to daily half-hour sessions and the trading list consisted of 18 securities. The cost of membership was $5.00. 1871 Toronto Stock Exchange had 14 member firms -- each paid $250 to purchase a seat. 1878 Toronto Stock Exchange became formally incorporated by an Act of the Ontario Legislature. Toronto Stock Exchange moved into its first permanent headquarters at 24 King Street East in Toronto. 1901 The price of a Toronto Stock Exchange seat or membership rose to $12,000. Trading volume approached 1 million shares per year and 100 companies were listed. The Exchange moved to 20 King Street East and continuous auction trading was introduced. 1913 -Page 1- The Exchange built and moved into its own building on Bay Street.
