In the last few years Merlin has developed one of the leading Mining & Metals practices in London, with a portfolio of clients covering copper, zinc, nickel, gold, silver, manganese, iron ore, titanium and diamonds.

Clients include FTSE100 and FTSE250 companies with world-leading assets and technologies through to AIM listed businesses entering into production. We offer a team that is extremely well connected with the key media and analysts covering the sector, and that is well versed in the issues and dynamics affecting the mining industry and its investment perspectives.

Recent experience has included the creation of Mittal Steel, the London Listing of Evraz Group, the IPOs of Gem Diamonds and Talvivaara Mining and a range of transactions for FTSE 100 Kazakhmys, Peter Hambro Mining, Mwana Africa and Nikanor.
