Nov 14 (Reuters) - Australia's Mineral Resources (MIN) said on Tuesday that it has bought additional shares in lithium miner Azure Minerals (AZS) , raising its stake to 13.56% from 12.23% previously.
Mineral Resources is currently on a stake buying spree, with the lithium miner recently acquiring about 19.9% in Wildcat Resources (WC8) to become a substantial shareholder.
Previously, Hancock Prospecting, owned by Gina Rinehart, Australia's richest person, accumulated an 18.3% stake in Azure, which threatened to topple a A$1.63 billion buyout deal by Chile's SQM SQMA.SN for the company.
SQM, Azure Minerals, and Mineral Resources did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for a comment.
