HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–SailingStone Capital Partners, a long-time shareholder of First Quantum Minerals Ltd. (TSX: FM) has issued the following statement:
Recently, a press report inaccurately characterized several key facts related to SailingStone’s position in the company, its assessment of management and the board, and the options available to the company to address the current situation.
