ATALAYA MINING COPPER SA
Atalaya Mining Copper, S.A. is registered with the Registro Mercantil de Sevilla (Seville Mercantile Registry) in Spain under CIF A75679282, and its status on that register is currently active. The company reached its present legal form on 9 January 2025, when a cross-border transformation deed converted what had been Atalaya Mining Plc, a Cypriot public company, into a Spanish sociedad anónima, an operation given retrospective effect for Spanish corporate-law purposes from 27 December 2024. The predecessor Cypriot company was incorporated on 17 September 2004 and was renamed several times before that conversion, trading successively as Mediterranean Minerals Public Limited, Eastern Mediterranean Resources Public Limited and EMED Mining Public Limited before adopting the name Atalaya Mining Plc in October 2015.
Atalaya Mining Copper, S.A., together with its subsidiaries, explores for and mines non-ferrous metallic minerals, principally copper, with silver and gold as by-products. Its flagship asset is Proyecto Riotinto, an open-pit copper mine and processing complex in the Iberian Pyrite Belt in the province of Huelva, Andalusia, operated through a Spanish operating subsidiary. The group also holds development and exploration interests in the Masa Valverde and Ossa Morena districts of south-west Spain and, through a phased earn-in arrangement described on the company’s official website, in the Touro copper project in Galicia, north-west Spain.
The company’s ordinary shares trade on the London Stock Exchange’s Main Market under the ticker ATYM and also carry a Toronto Stock Exchange listing under the ticker AYM, a legacy of the group’s earlier Canadian cross-listing. For the financial year ended 31 December 2025, the group reported consolidated revenue of approximately €482.9 million, up from €326.8 million in 2024, consolidated EBITDA of approximately €179.8 million, and copper production of 51,139 tonnes, according to its 2025 annual results announcement. As at 31 December 2024, the group reported 497 employees, of whom 492 were full-time. These are consolidated figures for the Atalaya Mining Copper, S.A. group as a whole, not figures isolated to the Spanish parent entity on its own.
Active registration at the Registro Mercantil de Sevilla confirms the company’s current legal status; on its own, it is not evidence of Atalaya Mining Copper, S.A.’s trading activity, financial condition or regulatory compliance.

Shareholders of Atalaya Mining Copper, S.A.
An internal registry snapshot for Atalaya Mining Copper, S.A. (verified 2 August 2026) lists five disclosed shareholders, all institutional funds rather than individuals: Global X Fds – Global X Copper Miners ETF, recorded holding approximately 23.37% of ordinary shares; iShares MSCI EAFE Small Cap ETF, approximately 4.69%; Avantis International Small Cap Value ETF, approximately 2.97%; College Retirement Equities Fund-Stock Account, approximately 1.00%; and Avantis International Equity ETF, approximately 0.80%. Because the shares are admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange’s Main Market, the company is subject to the UK Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules (DTR5), under which holders must notify the company only on crossing a 3% threshold and each subsequent whole percentage point, so this list should not be read as a complete shareholder register. Company announcements show continued change in the shareholder base: Urion Investments Holdings Limited, previously reported at approximately 10.94% of voting rights, disclosed disposal of its entire remaining stake, reaching 0.00% as of 12 August 2026, and The London & Amsterdam Trust Company Limited (Cayman Islands) filed a TR-1 notification in April 2026 after crossing a disclosure threshold on 19 March 2026.
Ultimate beneficial ownership
No ultimate beneficial owner is identified for Atalaya Mining Copper, S.A. All disclosed shareholders are asset managers, exchange-traded funds or other collective investment vehicles holding shares for underlying fund investors rather than natural persons, which is typical for a widely held, exchange-listed mining company. No source reviewed for this profile identifies a natural person exercising ultimate control.
Data availability
Shareholder disclosure for Atalaya Mining Copper, S.A. is major shareholders only: as a London Stock Exchange Main Market issuer, the company is required to disclose only holdings that cross DTR5 notification thresholds, so the total free float and any holdings below the applicable thresholds are not captured in the sources reviewed.

Recent structural changes
- 9 January 2025: cross-border transformation of Atalaya Mining Plc (Cyprus) into Atalaya Mining Copper, S.A. (Spain), registered at the Registro Mercantil de Sevilla, retrospective to 27 December 2024 (BORME-C-2025-250).
Data availability
Corporate-linkage information for this group is partial: the internal registry confirms the identity, jurisdiction and registration number of eight linked entities but does not disclose the ownership tier or percentage for any of them, so relationships above are described as “direct or indirect subsidiary” rather than precisely classified. The company’s own website separately confirms project-level interests, including a phased earn-in for up to 80% of Proyecto Touro and a reported 99.9% interest in Proyecto Ossa Morena, but these project-level percentages have not been reconciled against the entity-level ownership of the corresponding registered companies.
