aus wo ... sehr interessant, weil der kauf von forsys und der minenaufbau ca. 800 mio. usd kosten wird (darauf wurde auch schon auf wo hingewiesen). ________________________________________________ South Korea relies on external sources for much of its mineral requirements. The country imports as much as 87% of its minerals and a significant percentage of its energy resources, including almost the entire demand for bituminous coal, ores and concentrates of copper, iron, lead and zinc. However, the country does host small reserves of gold, molybdenum, silver, tin, tungsten and zinc. Compensating for the lack of mining activities on the domestic front, South Korea has been entering into partnerships worldwide to develop impressive mining properties including a 125mn tonne nickel mine in Madagascar. The Republic of Korea (RoK) has also signed agreements with Laos, Ukraine, Indonesia and Côte d’Ivoire to exploit mines in these regions. In January 2009, Koreas state-run Korea Resources Corporation (KORES) vowed to invest heavily in uranium and copper mines in Africa and South America. KORES President Kim Shin-jong claims that it is embarrassing for Korea, one of the top-six nuclear power generating countries in the world, to be dependent on imports of uranium. As a result, he has said that KORES is looking to acquire a small to mid-sized uranium company for around US$1b. In order to raise the capital, KORES is looking to sell five mines to Korean companies. http://www.pr-inside.com/south-korea-mining-report-q-r1142735.htm |
