Mitsubishi Corporation is one of Japan's five major sogo shosha (general trading houses), listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (8058.T).
Named counterparties identified by open-source research and written only where a primary source states the relationship — never inferred from sector or co-mention. 1 supplier. This is a partial view: it covers the relationships we could evidence, not the company's full supply base.
Northam CEO Paul Dunne, quoted in a Japan Times country report (2019-08-30): 'A substantial portion of our production is purchased by Mitsubishi Corporation RtM Japan and we recently signed a long-term partnership agreement.' Buyer is Mitsubishi Corporation RtM Japan, the group's metals trading subsidiary. Interview in trade/sponsored press, not a filing of either company, so confidence secondary; destination of the metal not stated, so no corridor credited; no volume or share disclosed.
Scope. Absence of a counterparty here is not evidence that none exists — most commercial sourcing is confidential and never becomes public. Rows without a share figure mean no share was disclosed, not that the relationship is small.
7 other tracked dossiers name this company as a counterparty in its own sourced disclosure — this platform never wrote these rows on this company's own page, they are read here inverted from the dossier that disclosed them. This is a partial view: 990 additional named-counterparty rows across the corpus could not be matched to a tracked dossier by name at all (mostly non-Latin legal names), so the true count is higher than what renders here.
Mitsubishi holds a 40% equity interest in Anglo American Quellaveco S.A. (AAQSA) and, per JBIC's own project-finance press release, 'will offtake the equivalent proportion of the copper ore produced, which it plans to supply to smelters including Japanese ones.' related_party: true because Mitsubishi is simultaneously the 40% JV co-owner of Quellaveco, not an arm's-length third-party buyer -- same structure as the Mercedes-Benz/ACC row in acc.md.
Seller is Anglo American Sur S.A. (Anglo American's 50.1% subsidiary; Los Bronces and El Soldado mines and Chagres smelter, central Chile). Related-party note, transactions table: 'Mitsubishi Corporation / Grupo Accionista / Ventas de cobre 458.984' (MUS$, 2025; 451.296 in 2024). Commitments note: 'Con fecha 24 de agosto de 2012, la Compania celebro un offtake agreement con Inversiones Mineras Nueva Acrux SpA, Mitsubishi Corporation y Anglo American Marketing Limited, a los cuales vende la totalidad de su produccion a traves de empresas relacionadas con estas.' Origin is Chile; the filing does not state where Mitsubishi delivers the copper (Mitsubishi is a trader), so the destination is left open. Distinct from the Quellaveco (Peru) row above.
FY2006 comparative. Rank 4 of 5, RMB 118.58m (11,858万元).

Northam CEO Paul Dunne, quoted in a Japan Times country report (2019-08-30): 'A substantial portion of our production is purchased by Mitsubishi Corporation RtM Japan and we recently signed a long-term partnership agreement.' Counterparty is Mitsubishi Corporation's RtM Japan trading subsidiary; interview in trade/sponsored press, not a Northam filing, so confidence secondary. Destination of the metal not stated, so no corridor credited; no volume or share disclosed.
Scope. This section is inverted evidence: each linked dossier wrote the original row about itself, describing its own relationship to this company. It is never a claim this company itself disclosed. Absence here is not evidence of no relationship — most of the corpus has no named-counterparty block at all yet.
This company sits on the supply side for 2 of its 2 materials — a restriction on those is a tailwind, not a headwind.
As a producer, policy pressure across its produced materials is coverage-limited.
Descriptive trend in official policy actions on this company’s materials — a policy-pressure trend, not a price or trading signal. No forward probability is implied. Direction is measured on actions we have discovered, and discovery lags events: where the recent window is too thin to support a calm reading, the row says coverage-limited instead of easing.
