In the mining sector, the firm

Rio Tinto
on a distinguished acquisition of La Granja mining project by
First Quantum Minerals.
This complex transaction
required the collaboration of several institutions
within the Peruvian
government including
ProInversion, Activos Mineros, and the Ministry of Energy and Mines.
It also required the collaboration of the firm’s mining and M&A practitioners.
In capital markets, the

This was an award-winning deal, in part due to its
