We advise mining and metals companies, governments, financial institutions, funds and other industry stakeholders on complex matters across the full value chain of the mining and metals sector, from exploration and extraction to processing and commercialization. Our team combines legal know-how with a practical understanding of mining operations and market fundamentals to help clients advance transactions, manage regulatory and geopolitical risk, and resolve disputes efficiently.

With an exceptional track record of first-of-kind, cross‑border and multi‑jurisdictional matters, we advise on joint ventures and strategic alliances, mergers and acquisitions, project financing and capital markets transactions, project development and structuring, and commercial contracting.

We also support clients on government and regulatory affairs, recognizing the growing importance of critical minerals to national policy, economic security, and long‑term planning. Our team draws on a trusted global network that includes former government officials and practitioners with experience working directly with governments in the US, EMEA and Asia-Pacific.

We are built to support clients through both boom and bust cycles. Our lawyers are experienced advocates in contentious matters, including arbitration, investment treaty claims, and complex negotiations with government stakeholders. By coordinating across practices – including construction, finance, trade, tax, antitrust, and environmental – we deliver integrated advice that protects value and supports long‑term strategic objectives. This approach, grounded in deep sector knowledge and technical fluency, enables clients to navigate a fast‑evolving global mining and metals landscape with confidence.
