Under the rules of the tender, a strategic partner for the RTB Bor has to invest at least 340 million Dollars into the company, increase production three to four times over the next 4-5 years and keep all 5,000 employees in their jobs.
Vecernje Novosti says that the Chinese company made an offer in order to get a position on the European market. The daily said it could not find out much about U Gold, except that it is reported to own coal mines in the Ukraine and hotels in Montenegro. The Champion fund invests in mining and has already expressed interest in a strategic partnership with the RTB Bor.
