Stikeman Elliott and Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison advised Canadian-based Teck Resources Ltd. on the US$9 billion sale of its steelmaking coal mining business.
Ending a months-long saga, Swiss company Glencore plc will get a 77% stake in Teck’s coal business for $6.9 billion, with steelmakers Nippon Steel Corp. of Japan and South Korea’s Posco, which currently own minority stakes in Teck coal mines, to indirectly purchase the rest. The deal was announced Tuesday.
