HudBay Minerals (NYSE:HBM). is a Canada-based mining company engaged in the exploration, development and production of base and precious metals. Its primary products include copper, zinc, gold and silver concentrates, which are sold to smelters and refiners worldwide. The company’s operations span multiple stages of the mining cycle, from resource definition and feasibility studies to mine construction, extraction and reclamation.
The company traces its roots back to 1927, when it was established as Hudson Bay Mining & Smelting Co. Limited. Over the decades it has grown through acquisitions and project development, adopting the HudBay Minerals name in 2011 to reflect its diversified portfolio. Key growth milestones include the development of major deposits in Manitoba and the commissioning of the Constancia copper‐gold mine in Peru.
HudBay’s flagship operations include the 777 and Lalor mines in northern Manitoba and the Constancia operation in southern Peru. The 777 mine produces copper‐gold‐zinc concentrates from underground workings, while Lalor extends the company’s zinc and copper footprint through both underground and open‐pit methods. At Constancia, HudBay extracts copper and associated precious metals from a modern open‐pit facility supported by on‐site process plants.
Headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, HudBay serves industrial and utilities customers across North America, Europe and Asia. The company is led by President and CEO Peter Kukielski and a senior management team with extensive experience in mining project development, operational excellence and sustainability initiatives aimed at minimizing environmental impact and fostering community partnerships.
