Chinalco could invest $426 million in Suriname bauxite project
If approved by parliament, Chinalco could begin construction by the middle of next year.
Brazilian miner Samarco Mineracao and its financial creditors will begin formal mediation about a consensus debt restructuring plan in a court in Minas Gerais, the bankruptcy judge decided on Tuesday, according to a document seen by Reuters.
Judge Adilon Resende had scheduled a conciliation hearing between the company and its creditors on Tuesday as the parties offered competing debt restructuring plans. The formal mediation will begin next month, the decision added.
The plan initially proposed by Samarco, a joint venture of miners Vale SA and BHP Group, was rejected by financial creditors in April.
The creditors and unions representing Samarco’s employees, with the company support, filed competing restructuring plans last month.
