Lexpert Leading
Canadian Lawyers
in Global Mining
WE ARE HONOURED to introduce to you this new publication. Lexpert, published
by Thomson Reuters, selects its Leading Lawyers on the basis of extensive peer Surveys.
As Leading Canadian Lawyers in Global Mining are retained globally (as well as domestically), we trust this will serve as a valuable resource guide for your company. The
listings of these ranked lawyers begin on p. 7.
There are various explanations as to why Canadian Mining lawyers excel at global
projects, including Mining's presence on the Toronto Stock Exchange, deep familiarity
with a resource-driven economy and having served clients in diverse legal jurisdictions
and on a range of projects. Their expertise has become renowned.
Certain Canadian law firms have offices in Mining-stronghold countries, while
others commute. Either way, the firms themselves provide the right scale and calibre of
legal teams. We further introduce you to some of these firms and Lexpert Ranked Lawyers as we explore, in this publication, issues of the day in Global Mining:
> The benefits of stream financing when debt or equity financings may not be optimal
on mining deals;
> Changes to securities rules that affect mining companies;
> Corporate social requirements; and
> Keeping ahead of emerging environmental compliance rules in differing global mining
juris dictions.
