Bear Creek Mining engages lead arrangers for $400m facility

Vancouver-headquartered Bear Creek Mining has engaged BNP Paribas and Société Générale as joint lead arrangers for a $400-million senior secured credit facility, which it plans to use for the fully permitted, Corani silver/lead/zinc project in Peru.

“The BNP Paribas and Société Générale mining teams successfully arranged project financings totalling $13-billion in 2018. This impressive record combined with their extensive Peruvian experience makes them an excellent partner for Bear Creek to advance the Corani project toward a production decision,” commented president and CEO Anthony Hawkshaw.
