Chinese-backed Hanking Australia has announced the sale of its Southern Cross Gold Operations to a company owned by the chairman of Super Pit suitors Minjar Gold for $330 million.Successful bidder Shandong Tianye Group is majority owned by Minjar Gold chairman, Zhaoqin Zheng, and is a private subsidiary of Shanghai-listed Shandong Tyan Home, which is believed to be restructuring in the wake of Minjar’s massive bid for half of Kalgoorlie’s Super Pit.And in a development that augurs well for Minjar’s reported $US1.3 billion bid for Barrick Gold’s half of Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mines, Shandong Tianye has already secured Foreign Investment Review Board approval for the transaction.Shandong Tianye has paid a $16 million deposit to Hanking Australia, with the transaction waiting on the finalisation of financing, Chinese regulatory approvals and shareholder approval from Hanking’s Hong Kong-listed parent company, China Hanking Holdings.Hanking said that since it acquired Southern Cross from St Barbara for $22.5 million in 2013 it has sunk $165 million into the operations, doubling its resource to 4.6 million ounces of gold and hitting an annualised production rate of 130,000 ounces a year since restarting in February 2015.Hanking Australia managing director Mark Qiu said Shandong Tianye had “long-term belief in the gold sector”.“We are delighted with this outcome, and are proud to have been able to create significant value for our shareholders and make important contributions to the local economy in the form of employment, rents, rates, royies and taxes,” he said.“We are also pleased that the Southern Cross Operations will continue to flourish under the new owners who have a long term belief in the gold sector and the ongoing prospectivity of the Southern Cross region.” 关键是“And in a development that augurs well for Minjar’s reported $US1.3 billion bid for Barrick Gold’s half of Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mines, Shandong Tianye has already secured Foreign Investment Review Board approval for the transaction.”说明澳洲政府已经批准 Minjar 购买 Barrick 的50% 股权了。 现在只需要中国政府方面批准 就可以了。兄弟们不要被手里没票（停牌前卖飞的傻X) 骗了。 今天的Hanking 收购只是资产重组的一部分。 Barrick 的50%股权还在进行中而且澳洲政府已经批准了。 利好消息！！ :)
