    Rio Tinto bids for Riversdale

    RIO Tinto has formalised a bid for Riversdale Mining at what is believed to be pitched at $16.50 a share.
    Shares in the Mozambique coal miner were placed in a trading halt this morning as the two parties thrashed out non-monetary terms, including pre-bid agreements that would prohibit Riversdale from soliciting rival bids.

    On December 6, Riversdale said it was in discussions with miner Rio Tinto about selling the company for $15 per share.

    Riversdale shares last traded at $16.30, but were trading at $14.10 before the statement.

    Riversdale is developing as a divesified mining financier, with its major operation the Zululand anthracite colliery in South Africa.

    Merry Xmas and a PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR
