Business Description
Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. is a Vancouver-based company founded in 2004 that finances mining operations around the world in exchange for the right to purchase a portion of their precious metals output at a predetermined price. Through this streaming model, the company gains exposure to gold, silver, palladium, platinum, and cobalt across more than a dozen countries spanning four continents. Formerly known as Silver Wheaton Corp., the company rebranded under its current name in 2017 to better reflect the broad range of metals it works with.
