Anvil operations in #DRC acquired by China Minmetals within close proximity to $AVZ. China Minmetals core #commodity focus is #lithium now.
big statement considering China Minmetals have no lithium supplies.
Faced with such national economic trends and changes in industry trends, we will actively meet the challenges and seize the opportunity to open a new era of development and create a grand “Dream of Minmetals”. It is our dream to become a world-class conglomerate in the metal and mineral industry, a dream to safeguard the demand for metal and mineral resources, a dream to lead the transformation and upgrading of China’s mining industry, a dream to develop steadily amid periodic fluctuations and also, a dream of glory to everybody here.
The “Dream of Minmetals” is our vision for the future and also a guide to action based on realities. We are now taking firm steps on the road to that dream. Specifically, our reserves of quality resources have increased significantly, and we have the world's largest copper mine project under construction, the Las Bambas project, and will become the largest copper producer in Asia and among the top 10 in the world after it has been put into production.
In addition, our global trade network centered in “the Belt and Road” region is taking shape, the Xinyilian e-commerce platform has rapidly grown into a leading third-party steel spot trading platform, and initial results in the transformation of metal and mining trading have been achieved.
Moreover, breakthroughs in key technologies have been made in deep processing of advantageous products like tungsten, rare earth, etc.
We have strengthened efforts in new product development, and will play an important role in the "Made in China 2025".
