The scale and success of LARCO’s operations can be seen in its dynamic upward progression over the past four years. In fact, 2005 was the best year in our history, with record profits matched by record production and lower production costs. We produced 19,235 tons of nickel, spent more than €19 million on investments and improved our efficiency and financial ratios.

These achievements have all been made possible thanks to the combined efforts of both our management and our employees. They mark the beginning of a new era in the history of LARCO and are a clear indication of the true potential of the firm.
