On Saturday, China’s biggest base metals trader, Minmetals CHMIN.UL, is expected to buy a stake in the Hunan Nonferrous Group (2626.HK) soon. To add, provincial government of Hunan, in central China, was strongly backing the deal.

The news article is quoted as saying:

In September 2008, Minmetals signed a strategic cooperation pact with Hunan Nonferrous, giving it the option to acquire a 40 percent stake in the company, the owner of China’s biggest zinc producer, Zhuzhou Smelter (600961.SS).
