Umicore N.V. (formerly Union Minière) is a Belgian-based multinational materials technology company, headquartered in Brussels. Formed in 1989 by the merger of four companies in the mining and smelting industries, Umicore has since reshaped itself into a more technology-focused business encompassing such areas as the refining and recycling of precious metals and the manufacture of specialised products from precious metals, cobalt, germanium, zinc and other metals. The company has been a component of Belgium's benchmark BEL20 stock market index since its 1991 inception.
