BEIJING, March 21 (InfoChina) – Shenzhen-listed aluminum processor Shanxi Guanlu Co. Ltd (SZ: 000831) announced Wednesday that its controlling shareholder Shanxi Guan Aluminum Group is schemed to sign a letter of cooperation intent with China Minmetals Corporation within three months on selling the shares it holds in Guanlu to the latter, thus to change the listed unit’ s real controller. Earlier there was market hearsay that Aluminum Corp of China (Chalco, ACH.NYSE, 2600.HK) had the intention to make the above-mentioned acquisition but Guanlu denied such saying in its announcement, declaring that the company didn’t make any contact with Chalco and no cooperation intent exists between the two companies.
