Xstrata / Anglo American

Anglo sees no need for 'put up or shut up' now : source - 21 July
Miner Anglo American sees no urgent need to demand rival Xstrata either submit a formal takeover bid, or walk away for six months, a source close to the firm said on Tuesday. Anglo has rejected a proposal by Xstrata for a "merger of equals", and Anglo's incoming chairman, John Parker, dismissed it on Monday as a distraction to management. - Creamer Media's Mining Weekly website
