五礦資源(01208.HK)附屬遭索償近2.6億美元 已提上訴
五礦資源(01208.HK)公布,全資附屬公司及剛果民主共和國礦山Kinsevere擁有人MMG Kinsevere接獲通知,採礦公司Katanga SARL(MCK)已入稟剛果民主共和國上加丹加省盧本巴希法院,對 MMG Kinsevere提出法律訴訟。
MCK聲稱,因其有權與MMG Kinsevere簽訂「礦山年限」協議,MMG Kinsevere有責任賠償MCK由於2018年MMG Kinsevere決定不再與其關連實體 MCK Trucks(當時稱為NB Mining SA)續簽或延長採礦服務合同而導致MCK所蒙受的損失。然而,Kinsevere礦山「礦山年限」協議的權利受關鍵標準制約,即該企業由MCK負責人Moise Katumbi或其兒子擁有,並且服務合同仍然具有國際競爭力。MCK要求賠償其蒙受的1.58億美元的損失另加1億美元的懲罰性賠償。
公司指,即使沒有就案件實質進行庭審,也沒有對索賠金額進行司法評估,但MCK通過訴訟獲得了對MMG Kinsevere 若干資產的凍結令,MMG認為這沒有遵循剛果民主共和國通常的法律程序。MMG已開始上訴程序。MMG Kinsevere及公司認為該索賠毫無根據及投機取巧,且索賠金額與所宣稱的損失完全不成比例。公司計劃堅決反對該索賠。
