However, Teck’s split is also happening at a time of considerable challenges for those coal-mining operations, from environmental concerns that have resulted in multi-million-dollar fines, to an expansion proposal that is deeply opposed by First Nations. Teck spokesperson Dale Steeves said in a statement that the move is solely to “unlock value,” by creating “two strong, sustainable, world-class mining companies.”
