The Articles state, amongst others, that:[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1669294569674{margin-left: 30px !important;}”]In November 2019, SMB-WINNING CONSORTIUM, a consortium set up by Winning International Group from Singapore, China Hongqiao, and UMS Guinea, wins the tender for 360-square-kilometer North Blocks 1&2 of Simandou’s iron ore deposit at the price of $14 billion, and was granted with the Mining Concession at March 2021. The 370-square-kilometer Simandou South Blocks 3 & 4 are held by Simfer S.A, a joint venture between global mining giant Rio Tinto and global aluminum giant Chinalco.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
