Minmetals Resources subsidiary MMG considers restarting or selling its nickel mine

Minmetals Resources Ltd. (1208. HK, referred to as Minmetals Resources) Australia's Minerals & Metals Group (MMG) said on Thursday that the company is in the process of restarting its suspension in Tasmania, Australia. The Avebury Nickel Research Program will also consider potential acquisitions or business plans from potential partners or buyers.

These proposals have increased the possibility of the restart of the Avebury nickel mine.

John Lamb, general manager of MMG's Rosebery and Avebury Mines, said in a statement on the company's website that after the evaluation process is over, MMG will disclose the results of the company’s assessment to potential partners or potential buyers and provide feasibility The comprehensive view and operational requirements of the Avebury nickel mine.

He also said that this process will end in the third quarter of this year, after which the MMG will decide on the fate of the Avebury nickel mine.

The Minmetals listed in Hong Kong completed the acquisition of MMG in December last year with a transaction value of 1.85 billion U.S. dollars.
