TECK ANNOUNCES INVESTMENT IN BUNKER HILL AS PART OF TRAIL MARGIN OPTIMIZATION
Teck Resources Ltd. has formed an agreement with Bunker Hill Mining Corp. for a $40-million (U.S.) equity investment intended to enhance the North American critical minerals supply chain by securing high-quality, cost-competitive zinc and lead concentrate from Idaho's Silver Valley to feed Teck's Trail operations. The investment is subject to various closing conditions, including completion of certain restructuring transactions and a marketed private placement by Bunker Hill and receipt of all necessary stockholder, regulatory and stock exchange approvals.
Highlights:
-
Investment will support the completion of development of the nearby Bunker Hill mine, located 60 kilometres southeast of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.
- High-quality, cost-competitive feed from Bunker Hill will provide additional optionality and is expected to enhance Trail's annual EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization).
- Zinc and lead concentrate produced by the mine will go to Trail under an existing offtake agreement and supplement existing feed from Teck's Red Dog operations and from other sources.
