Wheaton Precious Metals

Wheaton Precious Metals is the world's largest precious metal streaming company. It operates by securing agreements with mining companies to purchase silver and/or gold at a low fixed cost in exchange for an upfront payment. With operations across politically stable regions, Wheaton has created a business model that offers shareholders leverage to increases in precious metal prices, additional growth through new streams, dividend yields, and participation in exploration success. This model reduces capital and operating costs risks typically associated with traditional mining companies.
