The Montreal-based miner mainly has exploration and development operations in the Oyu Tolgoi Property in the South Gobi region, Mongolia.
The property consists of five deposits:

The Canadian mining firm claims that the Mongolian mining asset will become the third-largest copper producer in the world with its current development schedule.
