Canadian gold miner Yamana pursues London listing

Canadian gold mining firm Yamana Gold has unveiled plans to list its shares on the LSE main market in the next months, widening its shareholder base to include European investors.

The company, which is currently listed on the TSX, says it aims to become the “investment of choice” in London for those looking for exposure to gold, noting that the LSE has a limited number of one-million-ounce-a-year-plus pure-play gold miners with operations in established jurisdictions in the Americas.
