ABOUT WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS
Wheaton Precious Metals is a leading precious metals streaming company, providing shareholders with access to a high-quality portfolio of low-cost, long-life mines around the world.
Unlike traditional mining firms, WPM doesn't own or operate mines. Instead, it enters into streaming agreements, providing upfront capital to mining companies in exchange for the right to purchase a percentage of their future metal production at a fixed, below-market price.
WPM primarily sells precious metals in North America, Europe, and South America, and produces and sells gold, silver, palladium, and cobalt deposits.
The company has consistently outperformed gold and silver, as well as other mining investments.
