Mechel closed of the deal on selling Elga project share

Mechel announces the closure of the deal on selling to Gazprombank the 49% share in the Elga coking coal deposit development project for 34.3 billion rubles.

According to the agreement, Mechel sold to Gazprombank 49% of shares in Elgaugol, the project operator company and owner of its subsoil license, 49% of shares in Elga-Doroga which owns the Ulak-Elga railroad, and 49% of shares in Mecheltrans Vostok which is the railroad’s transport operator. The cost of these shares totals 34.3 billion rubles.

“Together with Gazprombank we have followed the long and difficult path of restructuring Mechel’s debt, and now, building on our partnership, we have exercised the Gazprombank’s option to purchase the 49% share in Elga Coal Complex. Completion of this deal will not only help decreasing Mechel’s debt, but will also enable us to further develop the Elga deposit, which has tremendous importance for Russia’s mining industry,” Mechel s Chief Executive Officer Oleg Korzhov noted.

The Elga coal deposit is Russia’s largest and one of the world’s largest deposits of high-quality coking coal, located in South Yakutia. Its reserves amount to approximately 2.2 billion tonnes according to JORC.
