 PROFILE
Teck Corporation is a refined zinc and gold digger. Teck has interests in about a dozen active mines in Australia, Canada, Peru, and the US. It primarily mines gold, zinc, coal, copper, and niobium; it's also a major refiner (28% of sales and almost half of operating income) of zinc and lead. Founded in 1913 as a gold mine operation, Teck still mines more than half a million ounces of gold a year from its David Bell and Williams gold mines in Ontario. Teck acquired Cominco and its Red Dog mine (Alaska) -- which holds one of the world's largest reserves of zinc -- in 2001. Teck previously held a 50.1% stake in the company. As a result of the acquisition, Teck is changing its name to Teck Cominco Limited.
