Business Description
Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. is a Vancouver-based company founded in 2004 that finances mining operations around the world in exchange for the right to purchase precious metals ? including gold, silver, palladium, platinum, and cobalt ? at predetermined prices. With partners operating across more than a dozen countries spanning the Americas, Europe, and Africa, the company generates revenue by reselling those metals at market prices without taking on the costs and risks of running mines directly.
