Chinese firms offer C$679m for Corriente Resources

By: Liezel Hill
29th December 2009

TORONTO (miningweekly.com) – Vancouver-based Corriente Resources has signed a support agreement with two Chinese companies that plan to make a cash takeover bid for the company.

CRCC-Tongguan Investment, which is jointly owned by mining conglomerate Tongling Nonferrous Metals Group and China Railway Construction Corporation, will offer C$8,60 a share for Corriente, valuing the Canadian firm at about C$679-million on a fully diluted basis.

The proposed transaction is the latest in a series of investments by Chinese companies in Canadian-owned mineral resource companies.

Shares in Corriente rose 12,7% on Tuesday, to C$8,51 apiece by 12:49 in Toronto. The offer was announced on Monday but the TSX was closed for a holiday.

Corriente is a copper and gold exploration and development company and its most advanced asset is the Mirador copper/gold project in Ecuador, where it has completed a feasibility study.

The company said that the agreement with CRCC-Tongguan was the culmination of an extensive review of strategic alternatives over the last two years.

Although Corriente has been looking for potential buyers for some time, the company has been clouded by uncertainty over mineral regulations in Ecuador, which froze all mining and exploration activity last year.

The government has since drawn up and put in place new mining legislation and Corriente said in November it had received a formal notification from the Ministry of Non-Renewable Natural Resources that advanced work could resume on the Mirador project.

The takeover offer, which has the support of Corriente's board, will require regulatory approvals, including from the Chinese government, and acceptance by at least two-thirds of Corriente shareholders.

All officers and directors of Corriente, who collectively hold about 12% of the company, have entered into lock-up agreements with CRCC-Tongguan, under which they have agreed to tender their shares to the offer and that they will not support any rival offer unless it represents a superior proposal.

"We are pleased to have reached an agreement with CRCC-Tongguan, who is committed to bringing their vision of responsible mining development to Ecuador,” said Corriente CEO Ken Shannon.

“The Mirador and Panantza - San Carlos copper projects will require large scale capital investment by CRCC-Tongguan to unlock the infrastructure development, social benefits and jobs that will flow to the people of Ecuador.”

By 14:13 on Tuesday more than 11,7-million Corriente shares had changed hands, making it the most traded stock on the TSX for the day.

So why do they need Capital IQ?

Corriente Resources Inc. expected to Report Q2 2009 Results on November 10, 2009. This event was calculated by Capital IQ (Created on September 15, 2009).

I feel good on this one.

The daily volumes are low but the stock keeps trading down. It would appear some don't want to wait. Sitting on the fence as to whether or not to buy more.

Nope... Just watching.

Awful quiet for a long time. Now 3 months past the expiration of negotiations. Any idea what is going on?

Interesting venture -- looks like something that can generate revenue.

VANCOUVER, CANADA, June 9, 2009 – Corriente Resources Inc. wishes to update shareholders on the following recent developments in Ecuador.

Ecuador – Chile (Codelco) Copper Development Cooperation Agreement
In a June 5, 2009 ceremony attended by President Rafael Correa Chile's Minister of Mining, Mr. Santiago Gonzales and the President and CEO of Codelco, Mr. Jose Pablo Arellano, a cooperation agreement was signed for the exploration and development of potential copper resources currently under the control of the Government of Ecuador. Personnel from Corriente were invited as guests to the signing ceremony, which included top officials from Codelco, President Rafael Correa, his Cabinet and local dignitaries.

After the signing, President Correa delivered a speech to local communities and commented, "Colleagues I am an economist specializing in development… and I know what is necessary for the country to emerge from underdevelopment and to attend to the poorest. We cannot live as beggars sitting on a sack of gold...".

Commented Ken Shannon, Corriente's President and CEO, "We welcome the participation of Codelco, the largest copper producer in the world, in the development of the copper sector in Ecuador. Their presence is an indicator of the success that the Government of Ecuador is having in advancing the theme of responsible mining and an indication that this message is being well received by the mining industry."

Ecuador Government Officials’ Tour of the Company’s Projects
Also during this past weekend, a number of government officials visited the company’s Mirador and Panantza – San Carlos project sites and took the opportunity to see the responsible nature of the company's development activities.

Corriente was also able to provide a tour of our newly commissioned Mirador micro-hydro project, which provides clean energy for all of the needs of the Mirador camp through a small run-of-river hydro facility using the existing water supply. This power project is significant in that it utilizes the first "made in Ecuador" commercial turbine, which was completely designed and built within Ecuador by an Ecuadorian engineering team. This small-scale project is an example of the scalable green technology that can be part of responsible mine development. Plans are underway to examine other potential sites that can benefit from this Ecuador technology.

Community Relations Agreement with the Shuar Federation of Zamora-Chinchipe
Recently, a capacity-building agreement was signed between Corriente and the indigenous Shuar Federation of Zamora – Chinchipe ("SFZCH"). This agreement establishes specific capacity building, job training, and socio-environmental projects with the SFZCH.

Potential Sale of the Company
Negotiations are continuing with the selected party regarding the potential sale of the company, as last announced in the company’s news release dated March 31, 2009. Discussions have progressed well and management is satisfied with the advances made in this process to date. Further comments or announcements will be made by the company as developments warrant. No assurance can be given that the negotiations will result in an agreement for any sale of the company.

ABOUT CORRIENTE
Corriente holds a 100% interest in four known copper and copper-gold porphyry deposits that are being strategically developed as the Mirador Project (which includes our Mirador Norte deposit) and the Panantza-San Carlos Project, for which NI 43-101 Technical Reports have been filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).

The company also holds 100% of concession interests covering approximately 430 square kilometres, in which six additional copper exploration targets have been identified. Taken together, the known project deposits and exploration targets represent a potential long-term district development opportunity for large-scale copper-gold mining in southeast Ecuador.
