RIO TINTO SELLS MOZAMBIQUE COAL ASSETS FOR US$ 50 MILLION TO INDIA'S ICVL

COALspot.com: Rio Tinto has agreed to sell its Mozambique coal assets for just US$ 50 million to International coal ventures Private limited of India.

International Coal Ventures Private Limited has been set up in 2009 as a Joint Venture Company in India with SAIL, CIL, RINL, NMDC and NTPC as the promoter companies for securing metallurgical coal and thermal coal assets in overseas territories.

According to Reuters, Rio Tinto has agreed to sell coal assets it bought through a $4 billion acquisition of Riversdale in 2011 for just $50 million to ICVL, ending its ill-fated venture in Mozambique's coal sector.

The sale of Rio Tinto Coal Mozambique to ICVL, includes the Benga coal mine and other projects in Tete province, assets that had a value of $71 million as of March 31 in Rio's books, Reuters further reported.

In 2013, Rio Tinto sacked its chief executive and other executives directly involved in the acquisition of Riversdale and wrote off about $3.5 billion of the purchase price, partly owing to a failure to secure a permit to move coal by barge down Mozambique's Zambezi River, as per Reuters.

According to Sunday morning herald of Australia, “ Rio Tinto has washed its hands of its disastrous $3.9 billion Riversdale Mining acquisition, by announcing a sale of its Mozambique coal assets for just $US50 million ($53 million)”.

Rio Tinto said the sale to ICVL is subject to certain conditions and regulatory approvals and is expected to be completed in the third quarter this year, as per Reuters.
