About Almonty
The principal business of Toronto, Canada-based Almonty
Industries Inc. is the mining, processing and shipping of tungsten
concentrate from its Los Santos Mine in western Spain and its
Panasqueira mine in Portugal as well as the development of its
Sangdong tungsten mine in Gangwon Province, South Korea and the
development of the Valtreixal tin/tungsten project in north western
Spain. The Los Santos Mine was acquired by Almonty in September
2011 and is located approximately 50 kilometres from Salamanca in
western Spain and produces tungsten concentrate. The Panasqueira
mine, which has been in production since 1896, is located
approximately 260 kilometres northeast of Lisbon, Portugal, was
acquired in January 2016 and produces tungsten concentrate. The
Sangdong mine, which was historically one of the largest tungsten
mines in the world and one of the few long-life, high-grade
tungsten deposits outside of China, was acquired in September 2015
through the acquisition of a 100% interest in Woulfe Mining Corp.
Almonty owns 100% of the Valtreixal tin-tungsten project in
north-western Spain. Further information about Almonty’s activities
