North American Palladium Ltd. (TSXPDL, AMEXPAL), founded in 1968 as Madeleine Mines Ltd., is a mining company with headquarters located at Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Renamed to its current title in June 1993,[1] the company primarily mines and explores for palladium but also for gold. Platinum, silver, nickel, and copper are mined as by-products. The company's principal operations are located in Canada, with the Ontario Thunder Bay District holding the Lac des Iles palladium mine.[2]
