Newmont sells Ontario mine to Orla for $850 million
The addition of the Musselwhite mine to its portfolio more than doubles Orla Mining's gold output to 300,000 ounces per year.
Oct 25 (Reuters) – Diversified Canadian miner Teck Resources Ltd. reported a near 23 percent drop in third-quarter adjusted earnings on Thursday, as prices for the company’s main products fell in the quarter.
Teck, the world’s second-biggest exporter of steel-making coal, said adjusted profit fell to C$466 million ($357.6 million), or C0.81 per share, during July-September, from C$605 million, or C$1.05 per share, a year earlier.
Lower base metals prices, negative pricing adjustments, lower steel-making coal sales volumes and reduced volumes from the company’s Trail operations that were impacted by wild fires, brought down the adjusted earnings, Teck Resources said.
Revenue rose 4.4 percent to C$3.21 billion from C$3.08 billion, the company said. ($1 = 1.3031 Canadian dollars)
