Annual Report to Shareholders
Perth, Oct 24, 2014 AEST (ABN Newswire) - As a diversified miner, Metals X Limited (ASX:MLX) (MTXXY:OTCMKTS) has exposure to a number of commodities and revenue streams. The corporate structure with which we operate is somewhat divisional by commodity and corporate entity. The key areas being our tin, nickel and gold divisions. Most of our development projects sit within these structures.
As an operating team, our objective is not to take a head-office control approach. We have a team of senior executives and technical staff in our corporate office and we perform technical evaluations, feasibilities and shared support functions from there.
Operationally we recognise that we are empowered to run a business for and on behalf of our shareholders. We recognize the importance of ownership and results from each business and fundamentally have the view that each of our operations is separately a small business/mine and this works on the principles and co-operation of the key staff members at that site. As executives and overseers our role is to ensure that we nurture a culture that ensures all our forces, resources, experiences and views are pulling in the same direction.
We take the safety of our staff, our contractors and all related stakeholders very seriously but with a logical and practical approach to manage to an exceptional level of risk. We operate with a high degree of respect and ethics in the management of our affairs and dealings with both internal and external stakeholders. We however, recognise that we are a business first and that the objectives and outcomes in mining and management of our assets is such that the marriage of these externalities needs to occur with balance, practicality and purpose.
For further details on financial and operational performance during the financial year refer to page 12 of the Directors' Report.
