    Cobre Panama concession and mining moratorium

    A revised concession arrangement for the Cobre Panama mine became the subject of intense political opposition and public protests in Panama. Legal challenges to the concession's constitutionality and a subsequent national moratorium on metallic mining created uncertainty for the mine and for Franco-Nevada's associated precious-metal streams. The controversy concerned the underlying mine's concession and national mining policy rather than an allegation that Franco-Nevada operated the mine improperly.
