TORONTO — The company founded by Lukas H. Lundin says the mining entrepreneur has died. 

Lundin Mining Corp. says he passed away at age 64 following a two-year battle with brain cancer.

Lundin’s four sons Harry, Adam, Jack and William say in a joint statement that the family is deeply saddened by his death, but that they take comfort in knowing his legacy will live on for generations.

They say their father was their biggest inspiration and that his passion for the industries to which he devoted his life was unparalleled.

Lundin started his career in the international energy and mining sectors in the early 1980s, working alongside his father, the late Adolf H. Lundin. 

He founded Lunding Mining with his father in the mid-1990s and was chairman of the company for more than 25 years until he stepped down in May.
