About us
Our unique approach to mining gives us a holistic view, creates leaders at every level, ensures we behave responsibly and has delivered a proven track record.
We take a different view
With operating mines spanning five continents, we know that what works in one might not be a perfect match for another. We encourage our people to forge their own path, finding the best way to solve challenges creatively rather than following the beaten track.
Our people are our greatest asset, a team of experts driven by a shared passion to uncover new solutions. We are enabled by an agile approach to work that encourages innovation and helps our projects, and our people, to reach their full potential.
At a glance
We build and operate complex mines to provide the building blocks of society, both for today and in the future. Our teams and our ways of working are designed to generate the maximum value for all stakeholders from our investors to the communities in which we operate.
Our purpose and values
We work responsibly, both sustainably and ethically, as we meet society’s needs. We look after the environment, we care about the people we work with and those in the communities where we work. Sustainable operations are central to who we are, driven by innovation and our robust governance practices to ensure that we do the right thing.
Leading by example
First Quantum has a highly skilled leadership team, supported by an experienced Board of Directors. They set the example for our colleagues to follow.
Transparent practices
First Quantum is governed with accountability, transparency and integrity. We know that without effective governance, it is impossible to do business the right way.
Builders and operators
We build and operate our projects, providing a more holistic view of each mine we operate, and providing more opportunities for us to develop and improve on our designs.
Sustainability
We care about the people and the places where we work. Our sustainability projects span multiple areas from helping improve education and livelihoods in our communities to protecting animal and plant life in the biodiverse countries where we work.
