Gold dominates

Nearly all of these mining companies (15) have businesses revolving around gold, coinciding with the precious metal’s rise over the past three years, during which prices have more than doubled from around $1,650 an ounce to over $3,600 currently.

The only names with no ties to gold are Almonty and Cameco, whose businesses are centred around critical minerals tungsten and uranium, respectively.

Notably, there was only one predominant copper miner — Taseko — while two prominent copper names (Filo and Teck) featured in last year’s list.
