Profits are up considerably at the Teck Trail Operation.
The company’s fourth quarter financial report includes a gross profit of $106-million locally, compared to $15-million in October, November and December of 2024.
Trail turned an annual gross profit of $282-million in 2025, as opposed to $12-million for the previous 12-month period.
The company previously announced its fourth-quarter production statistics, which showed the Trail smelter turned out nearly 230,000 tonnes of refined zinc in 2025, which was at the upper end of its projection, but down from the previous year.
Last year company officials said they would begin focusing on the more profitable areas of the Trail operation.
Teck and Anglo American received shareholder and government approval last year to merge, but the deal isn’t expected to be complete until late this year or early next year.
