Minerals 

Minerals are a chemical blend in its natural pure form. 

We can provide similar solutions as listed here above to companies active in the extraction of minerals. Specific for this sector is the mining activities: open quarries or underground mining. Property Damage losses can be huge and the impact of natural catastrophes can be devastating, depending on the territory where you have mining operations. 

Mineral companies are also more and more involved in legal liability claims especially when their products are blended with other products (e.g. construction materials). The liability for costs related to removal and refitting costs can be significant. Howden can help you with the handling of these claims through a team of specialists around the globe.
