Deep inside the earth lie valuable natural resources that have remained dormant for millions of years. Through human intervention, they take on new value as metals - a process that begins with the exploration and development of the earth's resources. This is what SMM's operations in mineral resources are all about. In Japan, we developed what became the country's largest gold mine, at Hishikari. Abroad, as professionals in mine development and operation, we continue to explore worldwide for outstanding ore deposits in a panoply of projects.
