Markets & Majors

The Chilean earthquake failed to revive copper prices, with a 0.1% rise of the US$ price over the past week. Chile state miner Codelco said it did not have any reports of damage to its mines following the 8.6 magnitude earthquake in the North of the country. Glencore Xstrata and Anglo American evacuated their Collahuasi mine for safety reasons, but did not report any damage.

Reuters - Indonesia has approved big increases in 2014 copper sales for local mines of Freeport McMoRan and Newmont Mining, as it pushes for the two firms to resume exports quickly. While the two U.S.-based miners made progress toward a resumption of exports from Indonesia, any prolonged stoppage would hurt their share prices and support global prices of the base metal. Freeport and Newmont together produce 97% of Indonesia's copper, and as a shareholder in both firms the hiatus could also hurt its national income that also benefits from their tax and royalty payments.

Mick Davis, the former chief executive officer of Xstrata, raised as much as US$3.75 billion from investors to buy assets and turn his X2 Resources into a mid-tier mining company. The five-member financing group comprises Asia’s largest raw-materials trader Noble Group (NOBL), private-equity fund TPG Capital and sovereign-wealth and pension-fund investors, X2 said, without naming the funds. It got US$2.5 billion of committed and as much as US$1.25 billion of conditional equity funding.

Reuters - Key copper firms in China, the world's top producer and consumer of the refined metal, are expected to face another tough year if copper prices remained under pressure. Jiangxi Copper and Yunnan Copper, China's #1 and #4 producers, as well as Shenzhen Zhongjin Lingnan Nonfemet - a major lead and zinc producer that also makes copper - posted either profit falls or losses in 2013. China's production of refined copper rose 13.6% to 6.84 million tonnes in 2013, faster than the 11% rise in 2012, according to official data.

Reuters - As regulators investigate the transparency of global financial benchmarks, bullion banks are contemplating a move to electronic platforms that would shed more light on the London gold fix, a widely used reference price. A growing number of technology providers are competing to offer a more transparent way of disseminating information that shows how the price of the US$20 billion a day trade is settled.

Mergers & Acquisitions

Aeon Metals (ASX: AQR) is to acquire Aston Metals (Qld) Ltd, which holds the Walford Creek tenement. The tenement has an inferred mineral resource of around 48 million tonnes at 0.39% copper and 1.42% Cu equivalent. Consideration payable by AQR is: 1 A$20 million non-recourse loan with 12% p.a. capitalised interest payable after 3 years, secured over Aston Metals, 2 48.275 million AQR shares at A$0.145 per share, and 3 3 year unlisted options with face value of A$10m. AQR has raised A$8 million via an equity placement of 66.7 million shares at A$0.12.

Cassini Resources (ASX: CZI) has acquired 100% of the West Musgrave project from BHP Billiton. The West Musgrave project includes the Nebo-Babel Ni-Cu sulphide deposits and the Succoth Cu sulphide prospect. The consideration payable by Cassini for the acquisition comprises: 1 A$250,000 in cash, 2 a 2% net smelter royalty from future production and 3 A$10 million in cash due 12 months after production from the project commences.

Metaliko Resources (ASX: MKO) will not proceed with the acquisition of the Bronzewing gold project as it failed to raise sufficient funds through its right issue. The underwriter terminated in obligations relying in part upon a fall greater than 15% of the S&P/ASX All Ordinaries Gold Index.
