Calibre strikes high-grade gold near Valentine mine build as production nears
The Valentine project, 85% complete as of this month, remains on track to pour its first gold in the second quarter next year.
Teck Resources, Canada’s largest diversified miner, reached a five-year agreement with unionized employees at its Trail Operations.
Teck will incur a one-time, after-tax charge to earnings in the second quarter of approximately $34 million related to a signing bonus and enhancements to pension and post-retirement benefits of which about three quarters will be a non-cash accrual.
No other details of the agreement were released.
Teck’s Trail Operations is one of the world’s largest zinc and lead smelting and refining plants.
