TORONTO - Lundin Mining and Inmet Mining have terminated their friendly business combination first announced on Jan. 12, 2011. The original deal worth $3.6 billion would have created a new company with a market capitalization of $9 billion.
Six weeks after Lundin and Inmet announced their intentions, Equinox Minerals made a hostile cash and share offer for Lundin. Its proposal, said Equinox, was worth $4.8 billion.
Lundin is now reported to be seeking an alterative to the Equinox bid.
