White Falcon Capital Management made the following comment about Teck Resources Limited (NYSE:TECK) in its second quarter 2023 investor letter:

Teck Resources Limited (NYSE:TECK): Teck Resources is a diversified mining company and produces essential natural resources such as zinc, copper, steel making coal. A new mine in Chile called QB2 has come online this year meaning that all capital expenditures to build this mine (and project risks) are behind us and all free cash flows from selling resources from this mine are in front of us. The world is short copper and not enough capital has been spent to explore for copper in the last 10 years. Given leads and lags in bringing new supply into the market and increasing use in electrification, we believe copper will be a structural winner over the next 10 years. Also, Teck is currently in ‘play’ which means that other companies are vying for its assets. It is uncertain how this all plays out but we believe this puts a floor under the stock price. Recently, we increased our position in Teck to make it a top 5 position.”
