Hyundai acquires Anvil Range shares

Having bought the Faro property in the Yukon, Anvil Range Mining has entered into an agreement with Hyundai of Korea involving the sale of Anvil shares worth $24.5 million.

Hyundai will acquire almost 1.6 million shares of Anvil at $5.68 per share and 2.5 million shares at $6.25 per share.

Early in November, Anvil sold 7.24 million shares for $41.1 million to institutional investors. In mid-November, it filed a final prospectus in Ontario, British Columbia and the Yukon for an offering of flow-through shares and silver royalty certificates, to raise up to $31 million. Anvil bought the Faro assets of bankrupt Currugh Inc. from receiver Peat Marwick Thorne (T.N.M., Nov. 14/94).

The company has also entered a sales agency agreement with Hyundai whereby the latter will sell half of the lead and zinc concentrates produced by Anvil during a 7-year term. The sales territory will include Korea, Japan and China. Shareholders of Anvil will be asked to approve a motion increasing the size of the board of directors to 12 members from seven, and another motion allowing for the election of three directors nominated by Hyundai.
