This extension forms part of an agreement where Indonesia’s mining industry holding company Mining Industry Indonesia acquires an additional 14% stake in Vale Indonesia from Vale SA and Sumitomo Metal Mining.

This deal, which was announced earlier this year, will result in the Indonesian Government becoming the company’s largest shareholder with a 34% ownership stake.

Recently, Vale completed the sale of its 10% stake in Vale Base Metals to Manara Minerals for $2.5bn (12.81bn reias), upon securing approvals from relevant authorities.

Manara is a joint venture between Ma’aden and Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund.
