Zijin News - The 2021 Fortune Global 500 list, the most renowned and authoritative tally of global companies, was released on August 2. Zijin Mining made its debut on the list, ranking 486th.

The Global 500 shrank over the past year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Total revenue for the world’s biggest companies fell 5% to $31.7 trillion this year, while aggregate profits were down 20%, the biggest decline since 2009. Sixty-nine companies on the list failed to deliver profits.
