RIO TINTO COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF BHP BILLITON'S INTERESTS IN RICHARDS BAY MINERALS
 Rio Tinto has doubled its holding in Richards Bay Minerals (RBM) following the completion of its acquisition of BHP Billiton’s entire interests. The purchase price paid by Rio Tinto on completion was $1.7 billion, a press statement from company said
The acquisition price was $1.9 billion before contractual adjustments for cash payments made by RBM to BHP Billiton since the effective transaction date of 1 February 2012. This price includes $0.6 billion for BHP Billiton’s 37 per cent equity interest in RBM, $1.0 billion for a 50 per cent interest in outstanding RBM shareholder financing arrangements, and $0.3 billion for a royalty stream.
According to press statement released by company, the acquisition was triggered on 1 February 2012 by BHP Billiton exercising a put option agreed with Rio Tinto as part of RBM’s restructuring in 2009. The price was determined through a previously agreed expert valuation process.
Rio Tinto Diamonds & Minerals Chief executive Alan Davies said “Doubling our stake in this tier one asset further strengthens Rio Tinto’s titanium dioxide portfolio at a time when the long-term outlook remains robust. Demand for feedstocks is expected to grow strongly, needing the equivalent of a new operation the size of RBM to be built every two and a half years.”
RBM is a South African mineral sands mining and processing operation located in Kwa-Zulu Natal. It is one of the world’s lowest cost producers and has mineral resources to support 20 years of production. Rio Tinto manages the RBM business and markets all of its products.
In 2011, RBM produced 14 per cent share of global titanium dioxide feedstock sales and 18 per cent share of global zircon sales. RBM’s revenues for 2011 were $1.2 billion, with 41 per cent generated from the sale of feedstocks. Rio Tinto continues to replace legacy titanium dioxide feedstock contracts, increasing exposure to more favourable market prices.
The remaining 26 per cent of RBM is owned by a consortium of local communities and businesses (24 per cent) and RBM employees (two per cent), in line with South Africa’s Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment legislation.
