Zirax signs Heads of Agreement to acquire its Principal Limestone Supplier in Russia
Zirax plc ("Zirax" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has signed Heads of Agreement to acquire its principal limestone supplier
in Russia. The acquisition is scheduled to complete later in 2008 and will cost the Company Euro 400,000 (USD 560,000) for 25 million cubic
meters of reserves.
The acquisition cost is less than Zirax's annual spend on high quality limestone, one of the key raw materials for Zirax's production of
its calcium chloride based products.
The acquisition will secure Zirax's supply of limestone; this will provide long term planning security and the ability to control costs
of a principal raw material. Zirax's current production requires approximately 100,000 MT of limestone per annum; with 25 million cubic
meters of proven reserves available from the quarry, this also gives Zirax the opportunity to expand the operations into other markets and
revenue streams.
Valery Andosov, Zirax Chief Executive Officer said:
"We are very pleased to be making this acquisition. With a relatively small investment, it is a very important move for us to secure the
supply of limestone and bring the cost under our control for future planning. As an added benefit we can explore the potential for expanding
the production and revenue from the quarry site."
