Karce International Holdings
Co. Ltd announced on Monday that it has discontinued an agreement to
purchase a number of Mongolian coal mines because their estimated reserves
are less than expected.
In a statement filed with the
Hong Kong stock exchange, Karce International said its technical adviser
estimated the coal resources in the mines would be less than the 140
million tons necessary for the purchase to proceed.
In October, Karce International
had agreed to buy 100 percent of Silverway Pacific Ltd, which owns Khuldiin
Nuurs LLC, a Mongolia-incorporated holder of mining licenses, for 1.4
bln HK dollars.
However, Karce International
said today it is in preliminary talks with an unidentified third party
about other mining projects.
