Lundin


Die Chinesen erobern die Welt - steht schon in jeder Wirtschaftspublikation. Doch die eigentlichen Eroberer kommen aus Schweden. Oder wäre Ikea heute noch aus Deutschland oder sogar Russland wegzudenken? Ein Eroberer aus dem hohen Norden im Rohstoffbereich ist Lundin. Von seinem Imperium wird noch viel zu hören sein.

Jetzt wurde auf den Hauptversammlungen von Eurozinc Mining Corporation und Lundin Mining Corp. die Zustimmung für eine Fusion der beiden Gesellschaften erteilt. Ende Oktober soll der Zusammenschluss über die Bühne gehen. Durch diese Transaktion wird ein äußerst bedeutendes europäisches Kupfer- und Zinkunternehmen mit dem Namen Lundin Mining Corporation entstehen. Die Marktkapitalisierung wird ungefähr 3,2 Milliarden kanadische Dollar betragen. Das neue Unternehmen besitzt vier lukrative bereits in Betrieb genommene Minen in Portugal, Schweden und Irland. Im zweiten Halbjahr 2007 wird eine fünfte Mine in Portugal, Alfustre, mit der Produktion beginnen. Insgesamt wird die Produktion jährlich 200.000 Tonnen Zink, 80.000 Tonnen Blei und 90.000 Tonnen Kupfer betragen. Dies entspricht einem Umsatz von ungefähr 1,4 Milliarden US Dollar.

Wer, so fragt man sich, steht eigentlich hinter Lundin Mining? Adolf H. Lundin ist ein interessanter Mann mit, wie es scheint, großen Ambitionen. Geboren 1932 in Schweden, ist er einer der erfolgreichsten Schweden der neuen Zeit. Nach der Arbeit bei verschiedenen Rohstoff- und Ölfirmen startete er seine Karriere 1971 als unabhängiger Entrepreneur im Öl- und Minenbereich. Das von ihm mitentdeckte North Gas Field in Arabien ist bis heute das größte bekannte Gasvorkommen auf der Welt. 1998 wurde er vom König von Schweden zum "Schweden des Jahres in der Welt" ernannt. Auf sein Konto gehen diverse Gesellschaften, die im Minenbereich und im Öl - und Goldsektor noch heute Öl, Gas, Gold, Kupfer und andere Mineralien produzieren.

Zum Lundin-Imperium gehört natürlich Lundin Mining. 1996 als South Atlantic Ventures gegründet, trägt die Gesellschaft seit 2004 den Namen Lundin Mining. Daneben gibt es Lundin Petroleum. Dieses Unternehmen hat exzellente Öllagerstätten in Frankreich, Holland, Norwegen, England, Tunesien, Indonesien und Venezuela. Die Marktkapitalisierung beträgt bei Lundin Petroleum immerhin fast vier Milliarden US Dollar.

Für die frühere Sowjetunion wurde 1996 Vostok Nafta gegründet. Öl, Gas und Elektrizität sind hier das Thema. Auch dieses Unternehmen besitzt eine Marktkapitalisierung von immerhin zirka 3,5 Milliarden US Dollar. Ein weiteres Unternehmen der Lundin Gruppe ist International Uranium. In sieben Uran- und Vanadium Minen in Amerika, Kanada und der Mongolei wird hier gearbeitet. Seit 2004, dem Geburtsjahr des Unternehmens, sind die Preise für Uran sehr stark angestiegen. Eine weitere interessante Gesellschaft, die zum Lundin-Verbund gehört, ist Tenke Mining Corporation. Diese hat einen 25,5prozentigen Anteil an Tenke Fungurume im Kongo. Dort wird an der vermutlich größten und reichsten Kupfer- und Kobald-Lagerstätte gearbeitet. Die Produktion soll im Jahre 2008 starten. Dann gibt es noch die Atacama Minerals Corporation. Seit 2001 wird in Chile Sulphat und Nitrat gewonnen. Aber zur Lundin Gruppe gehören noch mehr Gesellschaften, zum Beispiel Valkyries Petroleum (Ölvorkommen im früheren Russland) oder Canadian Gold Hunter (mehrere Goldvorkommen in Kanada). Ebenfalls zu nennen sind Redback Mining (Gold aus Ghana in Westafrika) und Tanganyika Oil, das seit 1995 zur Lundin Gruppe gehört. Tanganyika Oil ist durch diverse Vereinbarungen an Ölfeldern in Syrien und Ägypten mit immensen Ölvorräten beteiligt. Bleiben noch zwei Gesellschaften, die Teil des Lundin-Verbundes sind, nämlich Pearl Exploration and Production Ltd.(PXX), ein Unternehmen das in Nordamerika nach Öl und Gas sucht. Fortress Minerals Corp. ist die letzte Gesellschaft, sie forscht seit über zehn Jahren in Zentralasien und speziell in der Mongolei nach Gold.

Über diese Gesellschaften kaufte sich Lundin zudem in aussichtsreiche Projekte im Iran (über Union Resources aus Australien) und Eritrea ein. Lundin kann es damit in den kleinen Kreis der ganz Großen der Rohstoffbranche schaffen. Und seine Manager dürften ihn dabei kräftig unterstützen. Denn wie Karl Axel Waplan, CEO von Lundin Mining bei der Fusion sagte: "Diese Aktion ist Teil unserer langfristigen Strategie die weltweit führende Minengesellschaft zu kreieren". Aktionäre können Lundin nur die Daumen drücken.

EuroZinc Mining and Lundin Mining to Merge to Create Premier Copper and Zinc Producer
8/21/2006

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Aug 21, 2006 (CCNMatthews via COMTEX News Network) --
Lundin Mining Corporation (TSX:LUN)(OMX:LUMI) -

- The merger creates a premier, diversified copper and zinc producer

- Four profitable mines operating in Portugal, Sweden and Ireland; with a fifth mine, Aljustrel, to commence production in the second half of 2007

- Annual production of approximately 450 million pounds (205,000 tonnes) of contained zinc and 200 million pounds (90,000 tonnes) of contained copper

- Strong balance sheet with US$270 million in cash and short-term investments, minimal long-term debt, and significant operating cash flow to facilitate an aggressive growth strategy

- Management team to reflect the collective strengths of both companies

- Existing EuroZinc and Lundin Mining shareholders will own approximately 56.7% and 43.3%, respectively, of the combined company

EuroZinc Mining Corporation ("EuroZinc") (TSX:EZM)(AMEX:EZM) and Lundin Mining Corporation ("Lundin Mining") (TSX:LUN)(OMX:LUMI) today announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement to merge the two companies to create a new global mining company. The combined company will be called Lundin Mining Corporation and will have a market capitalization of approximately US$3.0 billion (CDN$3.3 billion), creating one of the North American and European markets' premier, diversified copper and zinc producers. The combined company, upon closing, will remain listed on the Toronto, OMX (Stockholm) and AMEX (application required) stock exchanges.

Colin K. Benner, Vice-Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of EuroZinc, stated: "This merger adds significantly to both EuroZinc and Lundin Mining's operating bases. By combining the two companies, our collective strengths will allow us to further improve the significant operating cash flow from each of the operations. The combined financial strength and collective expertise of our talented personnel will allow the new company to pursue global growth opportunities and fill the market void in the mid-tier mining sector. This combination of companies will increase shareholder value and provide greater sustainability for the future. We are very pleased and excited about the possibilities this merger affords our collective shareholders and see this as a major step in building a world-class mining house."

Karl-Axel Waplan, President and Chief Executive Officer of Lundin Mining, added: "The combined strengths of Lundin Mining and EuroZinc will allow an acceleration of both companies' aggressive growth strategies. The combined company will have a world-class portfolio of mining projects, the support of extensive shareholder bases in both North America and Europe, a very strong financial position with excellent cash flow, and a highly motivated management team - creating an exciting, powerful platform for rapid growth. We have a clear vision of where we want the combined company to go and we intend to both maximize our existing assets and also continue to pursue other world-class opportunities globally with the clear objective of creating value for our shareholders in both the short and the long term."

Diversified Copper and Zinc Production

Upon completion of the transaction, the combined company, Lundin Mining Corporation, will own and operate a portfolio of four profitable operating mines plus a fifth mine, Aljustrel, to be reopened for production in the second half of 2007. All of the combined company's mines are located in stable European jurisdictions: Portugal, Sweden, and Ireland. The combined company will directly employ approximately 1,500 people.

Including the planned production at Aljustrel, production from the combined company's operating mines is expected to be approximately 450 million pounds (205,000 tonnes) of contained zinc, 200 million pounds (90,000 tonnes) of contained copper, 175 million pounds (80,000 tonnes) of contained lead and 6 million ounces of contained silver on an annualized basis.

In addition to its breadth of operations, the combined company will have an extensive exploration and development portfolio. Each of the existing mines is located within large land packages in prolific base metal belts. Furthermore, through the proposed addition of the Metropol joint venture in Russia, the combined company will own or have an ownership interest in four of the world's fifteen largest zinc deposits. The combined management team is highly confident in the combined company's ability to grow from its present portfolio through both acquisitions and organic opportunities.

Financial Strength to Facilitate Aggressive Growth Strategy

As at June 30, 2006, the combined company's pro forma financial highlights include:

- cash and short-term investments of US$270 million

- total assets of US$2.4 billion

- long-term debt of US$43 million

- total revenue for the first six months of 2006 of US$462 million

- operating cash flow for the first six months of 2006 of US$203 million

This strong financial position will allow the combined company to pursue an aggressive international growth strategy in global base metals.

Management and Board Reflecting Collective Strength of Both Companies

Colin K. Benner will become Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the combined company and remain based in Vancouver. Karl-Axel Waplan will become President and Chief Operating Officer of the combined company and remain based in Stockholm.

Both EuroZinc and Lundin Mining will be equally represented on the board of the combined company which, along with Colin K. Benner, will include Lukas Lundin as Chairman.

Sollte man hier noch einsteigen und wenn ja wohin kann der Kurs euerer Meinung nach gehen und wie sehen die Kennzahlen für Lundin aus ?

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 25.187.746 von palmers2 am 07.11.06 10:06:02

Untenstehend Antworten darauf und wie es mit der neuen Gesellschaft weitergeht / weitergehen könnte.

( 2007er Zahlen von mir nicht geprüft )

Here are some new EZM facts if you factor in the three for one stock split. EZM shareholders would get 285 shares of Lundin for each 1,000 shares of EZM. THe new company would have about 285,000,000 shares outstanding and would likely trade at about $12 U.S. The new company would earn about $700M in 2007(500M from EZM and $200M from Lundin) at current metal prices. EPS would be about $2.40 per share and the stock would be selling at 5 times 2007 earnings.

Immer daran denken, der Split kommt noch.

Hallo Motorcyclemama,

ich hatte keinen Thread gefunden, da Du auf der "SE"-Aktie verlinkt bist.
Habe daher einen mit dem Link auf die "CA"-Aktie eröffnet.
Na ja, doppelt hält besser.
Aber da Du zuerst da warst, schlage ich vor, Deinen Thread als Hauptthread weiterlaufen zu lassen.
Wenn jemand nach der "CA"-Aktie sucht, findet er wenigstens einige grundsätzliche Informationen hier.

Hallo, hätte keine Probleme mit deinem Thread. Allerdings ist LUNDIN ja neben dem dort genannten " ZINK Play " inzwischen auch ein Silber -, Kupfer-, Blei - Produzent. Vielleicht spricht das mehr Leute an.

Ansonsten ist es schon interessant, wie die kleinen Klitschen hier abdiskutiert werden und ein richtiger Player so lange von der breiten " Masse " unentdeckt bleibt. Uns kann es ja nur recht sein, wenn die Euphorie erst noch kommt.

Jetzt warten wir Mal diesen Donnerstag ab, wobei mich weniger das abgelaufene Quartal als mehr die Erwartungen interessiert.

Viel Glück mit deinen Investments !

Lundin Mining Reports Purported Termination of Union Resources' Agreements on Mehdiabad Zinc Project
Friday December 8, 8:22 am ET


VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(MARKET WIRE)--Dec 8, 2006 -- Lundin Mining Corporation ("Lundin Mining" or the "Company") (TSX:LUN.TO - News)(AMEX:LMC - News)(Shenzhen:LUMI.SZ - News) has been informed by Union Resources Limited ("Union") that Union has received a letter from its Iranian Government partner, Iranian Mines and Mining Industries Development and Renovation Organization ("IMIDRO"), purporting to terminate certain agreements relating to the Mehdiabad zinc project. The agreements include:
1. Formation Agreement dated October 30, 1999

2. Basic Agreement dated November 22, 1999

3. Management Agreement dated January 17, 2001

4. Engineering Services Agreement dated January 17, 2001

The full text of Union's press release can be found at www.unionresources.com.au and includes the following statement by Union:

ADVERTISEMENT


"Union is of the opinion that IMIDRO has invalidly issued the purported notice of termination and the board of Union is taking urgent steps to clarify and resolve the situation and ascertain the impact of the letter on Union's investment in the Project.

Union is further of the opinion that the Company has complied with all of its obligations under the Foundation Agreement, the Basic Agreement and the Management Agreement, and that no basis exists for termination. Whilst Union is a signatory to the Engineering Services Agreement, it relates to work carried out on the Project by the other partner to the Joint Venture, Itok GmbH."

In August 2005 Lundin Mining acquired a 19.9% interest in Union, a publicly traded Australian mining company, for a total consideration of approximately US$ 4.4 million. Union's main asset is a 38% ownership in the zinc-lead deposit Mehdiabad in Iran. The Iranian State owns 50% of the Mehdiabad project and Itok the balancing 12%. Lundin Mining will continue to monitor the development in the Mehdiabad project. Although the deposit is of size, Lundin Mining holds a relatively small, indirect, interest in the project and does not consider that the possible termination of the agreement between Union and IMIDRO to be material.

Lundin Mining Reports on Status of Negotiations With Labour at Galmoy Mine

Friday January 12, 2:30 am ET


VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(MARKET WIRE)--Jan 12, 2007 -- Lundin Mining Corporation ("Lundin Mining" or the "Company") (TSX:LUN.TO - News)(AMEX:LMC - News)(Shenzhen:LUMI.SZ - News) reports on the status of negotiations between management of the Galmoy zinc/lead mine in Ireland and the unions representing employees at Galmoy Mines Ltd., the SIPTU and the TEEU. Management of the mine has been negotiating with the unions since June, 2006 regarding the level of pay increases for 2006 and onwards with the intention of adopting the terms of the National Partnership Agreement signed by the Employers Federation, IBEC, as well as the unions and the Government of Ireland. Under the terms of the National Partnership Agreement salaries at the mine would be increased by a further 10.4% over a 27 month period in addition to the previous 28.6% increase over 17 months. Local unions are, however, requesting an additional increase on top of the National Agreement. As a result, negotiations were handed over to an arbitration process with the Labour Relations Commission in October of 2006. Two meetings were held with the Commission during late 2006 and the next meeting with the Commission is scheduled to be held on January 16, 2007. Management is hopeful that a satisfactory conclusion will be reached at that time.

The delays in negotiations have, however, resulted in employees at the mine recently becoming distracted by the process, which in turn has negatively impacted on the production of concentrates at the mine. Due to the reduced production of concentrates Galmoy Mines Ltd. is working with its customers to reschedule deliveries as it is unable to adhere to the agreed shipping schedule and will be forced to delay some shipments.

Stefan Mansson, Managing Director of Galmoy Mines Ltd. said, "We hope to have the matter resolved shortly as both parties are motivated to do so. It is unsettling for the entire Galmoy team to have this issue unresolved and we will work hard to resolve it to everyone's best interest."

The Galmoy Mine is a high grade zinc/lead mine located in Kilkenny County, Ireland. Discovered in 1986, the mine was first put into production in 1997. It is a modern underground mine with an annual production of approximately 70,000 tonnes per annum zinc and 19,000 tonnes per annum lead.

Certain of the statements made and information contained herein is "forward-looking information" within the meaning of the Ontario Securities Act or "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 of the United States. Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, risks and uncertainties relating to foreign currency fluctuations; risks inherent in mining including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected geological formations, ground control problems and flooding; risks associated with the estimation of mineral resources and reserves and the geology, grade and continuity of mineral deposits; the possibility that future exploration, development or mining results will not be consistent with the companies' expectations; the potential for and effects of labour disputes or other unanticipated difficulties with or shortages of labour or interruptions in production; actual ore mined varying from estimates of grade, tonnage, dilution and metallurgical and other characteristics; the inherent uncertainty of production and cost estimates and the potential for unexpected costs and expenses, commodity price fluctuations; uncertain political and economic environments; changes in laws or policies, foreign taxation, delays or the inability to obtain necessary governmental permits; and other risks and uncertainties, including those described under Risk Factors Relating to the Company's Business in the Company's Annual Information Form and in each management discussion and analysis. Forward-looking information is in addition based on various assumptions including, without limitation, the expectations and beliefs of management, the assumed long term price of copper and zinc; that the companies can access financing, appropriate equipment and sufficient labour and that the political environment where the Companies operate will continue to support the development and operation of mining projects. Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in forward-looking statements. Accordingly, readers are advised not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

UPDATE 1-Lundin to delay shipments from Galmoy mine

TORONTO, Jan 12 (Reuters) - Canada's Lundin Mining Corp. (LUN.TO: Quote, Profile , Research) said on Friday it will have to delay some shipments and reschedule deliveries because production at its Galmoy zinc and lead mine in Ireland has slowed due to labor negotiations.

"What has happened is that the production volume has come off since January, which means we can't meet most of the agreed shipments to the smelters," said company spokeswoman Catarina Ihre. "We have to renegotiate some of the shipment agreements or change them otherwise."

The Galmoy mine, in Kilkenny County, produces about 70,000 tonnes of zinc and 19,000 tonnes of lead per year.

Since June 2006, management and the two unions that represent mine and concentrator workers have been negotiating wage increases with the intention of adopting the terms of the country's national partnership agreement.

Under those terms, salaries at the mine would increase 10.4 percent over a 27-month period in addition to the previous 28.6 percent increase over 17 months.

But local unions want an additional increase. Negotiations went to an arbitration process in October 2006. Two meetings were held late in the year and another is scheduled for Jan. 16.

Ihre said the company is not contemplating declaring a force majeure. "We will see what kind of reaction we will get from customers," she said.

Lundin, based in Vancouver, British Columbia, also owns two base metal mines in Sweden, Zinkgruvan and Storliden, and one in Portugal, Neves-Corvo.

Shares of Lundin eased 2 percent to C$39.70 on the Toronto Stock Exchange on Friday morning.

Lundin eyes doubling Neves-Corvo zinc production

Wed Jan 24, 2007 1:48pm ET


OTTAWA, Jan 24 (Reuters) - Base metals producer Lundin Mining Corp. (LUN.TO: Quote, Profile , Research) said on Wednesday it is examining ways to double zinc production at its Neves-Corvo mine in Portugal after bringing the operation up to speed faster than expected.

Lundin currently expects to produce 25,000 tonnes of zinc metal in concentrate in 2007 from the mine, which began producing in July 2006, slightly ahead of schedule.

"We are at present completing the design and engineering requirements to increase annual zinc production to 50,000 tonnes of zinc metal," Lundin's Iberian chief operating officer, Joao Carrelo, said in a statement.

Lundin will pick an engineering firm this week to review opportunities to expand production "even further", and will soon publish new zinc reserves and resources for Neves-Corvo.

"It is safe to say that the information to date supports considering a substantial increase to the zinc production at Neves-Corvo, while maintaining and/or increasing the output of copper at the mine," Carrelo added.

Lundin said the site's zinc processing facility has consistently hit production rate targets since Dec. 5, 2006, five months after the mine commissioning, or start-up. That is ahead of the typical 12- to 18-month ramp-up time for similar base metal process plants, it said.

Shares in the mid-tier producer were up 9 Canadian cents at C$41.34 on the Toronto Stock Exchange on Wednesday.

UPDATE 3-Lundin looks to snap up Rio Narcea
Toronto stocks zoom to record high on oils, metals

By Cameron French

TORONTO, April 4 (Reuters) - Lundin Mining Corp. (LUN.TO: Quote, Profile , Research) has offered to buy junior miner Rio Narcea Gold Mines Ltd. (RNG.TO: Quote, Profile , Research) for about C$864 million ($745 million) in order to jump into the red-hot nickel market, it said on Wednesday.

Nickel prices have more than tripled over the past year, leading to a takeover spree that has already swept up venerable Canadian players Inco and Falconbridge, who were bought last year by rivals in Brazil and Switzerland.

Lundin, which has itself been bulking up of late, made the all-cash offer in order to snap up Rio Narcea's Aguablanca mine in Spain, one of the largest nickel mines in Europe, designed for annual production of 18 million pounds of nickel and 14 million pounds of copper.

Speaking on a conference call with analysts and media, Lundin officials said the deal would immediately bring improvements to the company's production and cash flow, with about one-quarter of its sales to be tied to nickel.

"We believe that adding nickel to a base-metal mining company such as ours is easily explainable based on the fundamentals of the nickel market today," said Lundin vice-chairman Colin Benner.

The C$5 per share deal represents a thin 3.7 premium over Rio Narcea's closing stock price on Tuesday, but a 22.9 percent premium over the stock's 30-day average weighted price, which Lundin referred to when asked about the offer value. Continued...

Einen Fonds kaufen, der in Basismetalle investiert ist ?

Nicht mehr nötig !

Mit / in LUNDIN haben wir die gewollte Streuung.

"Überraschend deutlich äußert sich Haywood zu einer möglichen Übernahme von Moto Goldmines. In den Augen des Haywood Analysten kristallisiert sich Red Back Mining als Übernahmeinteressent heraus. Er bezieht sich dabei darauf, dass das zur Lundin Gruppe gehörende Unternehmen jüngst seine Absicht bekannt gegeben hat, durch Akquisition bis 2010 auf eine Jahresproduktion von 1 Million Unzen zu kommen. Red Back betreibt eine Goldmine in Ghana. Die Lundin Gruppe besitzt mit Tenke Mining Corp. bereits ein bedeutendes Kupferasset im Süden des Kongo."

Könnte genauso gut auch Lundin sein, da wohl "der rote Hintern" über nicht ausreichende Mittel verfügt.
