Globe says Teck receives new proposal from Lassonde Teck Resources Ltd (C:TECK) Shares Issued 506,910,279 Last Close TECK.B 5/9/2023 $61.17 Wednesday May 10 2023 - In the News Also Franco-Nevada Corp (C:FNV) In the News The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday edition that a consortium led by Canadian mining veteran Pierre Lassonde is proposing to buy Teck's coal operations, a deal that could stop Swiss giant Glencore PLC in its tracks and offer a made-in-Canada solution that may be palatable to Ottawa. The Globe's Niall McGee writes that Mr. Lassonde is co-founder and chair emeritus of Franco-Nevada, the world's biggest mining streaming and royalty firm. He has also been an outspoken critic against the incursion of foreign mining companies into Canada over the past two decades. "We've had discussions with Teck, we've put forward a plan, and we have signed a [confidentiality agreement]. We're waiting to hear from them as to which way they want to proceed," Mr. Lassonde told The Globe. Teck declined to comment. Mr. Lassonde had already signalled that he was interested in Teck's coal business, and if Teck's proposal to split itself into two companies had been accepted by its shareholders last month, a consortium led by Mr. Lassonde was looking at taking a sizable equity position. His new proposal is much bigger in scope, entailing the purchase of Teck's entire coal business. Such a proposal would only require board approval. © 2023 Canjex Publishing Ltd.
