Which JPM Group Does This?

I just read on DealBook how JPM is the sole underwriter on Freeport-McMoRan's acquisition of 2 smaller companies. It's a loan worth about $9.5bn. I'm curious as to which group within JPM (or any BB) would be responsible for handling such a deal? I always read about people comparing this group vs. that on WSO, but I'm curious to see the connection to a deal like this. Thanks in advance.

Why wouldn't it be a metals and mining group? That's the type of company involved anyway.

It's a tag team effort. Metals and Mining brings the company, Syndications/LevFin brings the money.
