Farallon Mining Ltd. (TSX:FAN) is a Canadian company with a zinc-rich polymetallic mine in Guerrero State, Mexico.The G-9 mine achieved commercial production in April 2009. The production results during the commissioning phase met our targets and the mine has been built on-time and on-budget.G-9 deposit discovered, drilled and put into operation in less than four years.The G-9 mine is projected to be a low-cost producer of zinc along with excellent by-product credits in copper, silver, gold, and lead. Mill operating at over 1,900 tpd in March & April 2010, 27% above design capacity (1,500 tpd) one year after commercial production.Farallon has been steadfast in their ability to manage all aspects of bringing the G-9 mine into production. This should allow shareholders to ultimately benefit from the G-9 mine and the potential ability to generate cash flow under difficult circumstances.As well, the exploration potential of the Campo Morado property is still relatively untapped with numerous targets open for exploration and ultimately development, resulting in a district scale mining company with several mines in operation.

Duferco was established in 1979 by Bruno Bolfo, Chairman of the Board, and a group of other steel professionals to exploit the advantages of "emerging markets" steel production. At its inception, Duferco was based in New York, NY, and Sao Paulo, Brazil. The Company, through its relationship with local steel producers, quickly became the leading independent exporter of Brazilian steel throughout the world. Duferco's growth and profitability was based upon close relationships with key Brazilian producers (Cosipa/CSN/CST/Acominas and Usiminas) and the establishment of a small sales network, predominately in the US and in the Far East (Duferco's first office in the Far East was in Thailand, which opened in 1980).In the early 1980's, using its success in Brazil as a springboard, Duferco began to source steel products from other countries. First, Duferco concentrated on other South American countries, with its largest success in Argentina, Venezuela and Mexico. Leveraging on that success, Duferco began to develop purchasing operations in North America and Europe, with its first European office opening in London in 1981. Duferco then proceeded to open a chain of offices in the Pacific Rim that came on line in the late 1980's. After Thailand, the Company opened offices in Taiwan, the Philippines, Singapore, Hong Kong, China and South Korea.In the mid 1990's, the Company opened a large number of offices in Eastern Europe, putting in place an infrastructure in anticipation of the growth of the area as an export market. Duferco also launched ancillary trading operations in the field of raw materials primarily related to the steel industry, such as coke, coal, iron ore, scrap, pig iron, D.R.I., and related products, maximizing its contacts with steel producers throughout the world.In the mid 1990's, two occurrences in Europe presented an opportunity to Duferco. The first was the beginning of a consolidation in European steel, which caused severe financial hardship for smaller European mills. This presented opportunities for Duferco in Italy (Duferdofin), Belgique and Eastern Europe. The second was the restructuring of the Italian steel industry, which caused many steel professionals to enter pre-pension at an early age (50). This permitted Duferco to create an experienced industrial team to manage its properties.Duferco's acquisition of all assets from Ferdofin Siderurgica in receivership (now Duferdofin) was the first step in 1996, followed by many other opportunistic participations/acquisitions, such as Duferco Clabecq (1997), Makstil Skopje (1998), Duferco Farrell Corp. (1999), Duferco La Louvière (1999) and various distribution centers in Europe.

Excelling in the production and distribution of the finest quality copper and brass products is the foundation upon which Mueller Industries operates. Since its inception in 1917 as Mueller Metals Company and later Mueller Brass Company in Port Huron, Michigan, the company has been a leader in the development of new products and innovative manufacturing processes. Mueller Industries, Inc., is traded on the New York Stock Exchange (MLI), and has annual worldwide sales in excess of one billion dollars. The company provides the broadest tube and fitting product line available from a single source in the United States for plumbing and refrigeration applications. Today, more than ever before, wholesalers, original equipment manufacturers, and retail distribution chains have more to focus on than just Mueller copper tube and fittings. It has all come about through an aggressive investment in manufacturing and distribution facility expansion, modernization and acquisitions. During the 1990's Mueller invested approximately $300 million for capital improvements. Mueller is committed to reinvesting in its manufacturing operations to ensure its competitive position. No other company in our industry can match this level of commitment to customers. Mueller's acquisitions are just as significant as the capital improvements. Over the same period, Mueller completed several acquisitions that have strengthened and expanded its core business offering. These acquisitions have enabled Mueller to broaden its product line with complementary products. Offering the widest selection of products and the most production capability is just the beginning of Mueller's commitment to customers. What pulls it all together is the dedication to superior customer service. It starts with a seasoned sales force of factory sales representatives and agents that receive extensive training in Mueller's own university type facility. An integrated customer service facility allows the same service representative to support the customer from order entry through order fulfillment. Strategically located distribution facilities ensure products take the most direct route from manufacturing to customer delivery.
