EMED Mining was admitted to trading on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange in May 2005 and on the Toronto Stock Exchange in December 2010.
The Company is committed to responsible development of metal production in Europe, with a focus on copper, gold and critical raw materials.
The Group's region of interest is the tectonic belts spanning across Europe and over to the Middle East.

The Company strictly implements its Environmental & Community Policies.
EMED Mining is focused on two key projects in Spain and Slovakia:
Copper in Spain: The Company's priority is to progress the planning and permitting process required to commence production from its wholly-owned Rio Tinto Copper Mine. Located 65km northwest of Sevilla in Andalucía, the open-pit mine, processing plant and waste disposal facilities has been on care and maintenance since 2001.
Gold in Slovakia: EMED Mining discovered the Biely Vrch porphyry gold deposit and is currently advancing the planning and permitting necessary for development.
