Baker McKenzie has a deep history in delivering solutions to the global mining industry in both the traditional and newer markets. We have developed one of the world’s strongest mining law teams, specialising in international exploration and mining projects, and metals and mining M&A, across six continents for more than 60 years. We act for and understand the needs of explorers, mining companies, investors, traders, financiers and the other key stakeholders in the full life cycle of mining projects. Our clients include 5 out of the top 10 global listed mining companies by market capitalisation.  We have a presence in more of the key mining jurisdictions globally than any of our competitors, with dedicated, full service transactional teams in the key mining hubs of London, Toronto, Johannesburg and Australia, and established teams of leading locally trained lawyers in those newer markets where our clients have pursued opportunities such as Central Asia, Africa and South America.  Our lawyers are fully conversant with the complex issues that arise in cross-border assignments, both in mitigating risks and developing solutions that meet the business and regulatory needs of our clients.
