North American Palladium Ltd. (TSX: PDL, AMEX: PAL) is a mining company with headquarters located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. 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.[1]
History
North American Palladium was founded in 1968 as Madeleine Mines Ltd. and was renamed to its current name in June 1993.[2] The Lac des Iles mine began as an open pit mine in 1993. A new mill was commissioned at the mine in 2012, with mine's production rate increasing following that. Underground operations at Lac des Iles started in 2006.[3] On October 21, 2008, the Lac des Iles mine was placed on "care and maintenance" due to declining metal prices.[4] It was reopened on October 13, 2010.[5][6] On May 26, 2009, the company acquired the Sleeping Giant gold mine through the acquisition of Cadiscor Resources Inc.[7] On May 20, 2010, the company acquired the Vezza gold project, in the Abitibi region, from Agnico-Eagle Mines.[8]
The only other North America based palladium or platinum producer is Stillwater Mining Company, located in Montana, USA.[9]
