These increases were partially offset by a decrease in sales volumes of refined zinc and zinc in concentrate and by the strengthening of the Canadian dollar. The decrease in 2020 revenue from 2019 revenue was primarily due to the impact of COVID-19 on prices for its products, most significantly steelmaking coal, zinc and blended bitumen. Revenue was also negatively impacted in 2020 by significantly lower sales volumes for steelmaking coal due to the impact of COVID-19 on demand, logistics chain issues early in the year and the planned shutdown at Neptune.

As at December 31, 2021, US$2.3 billion was outstanding under its US$2.5 billion QB2 project financing facility. In July 2021, Antamina entered into a new US$1.0 billion loan agreement. The company's 22.5% share of the loan, if fully drawn, will be US$225 million. Proceeds from the loan have been used to repay the existing credit facilities and will be used to fund capital expenditures going forward.
