Court approves dispatch of Scheme Book and convening of Scheme Meeting

 

Altona Mining Limited (“Altona” or the “Company” - http://www.commodity-tv.net/c/search_adv/?v=298158 ) is pleased to announce that the Federal Court of Australia has made orders approving the dispatch of the scheme book (“Scheme Book”) in relation to the proposed scheme of arrangement under which Copper Mountain Mining Corporation (“CMMC”) will acquire all of the shares in Altona (“Scheme”).

 

The Court has also ordered that a meeting of Altona shareholders be convened to consider and vote on the Scheme (“Scheme Meeting”).

 

Implementation of the Scheme is subject to a number of conditions under the Merger Implementation Deed announced to ASX on 20 November 2017 (“MID”), including Altona shareholder approval in respect of the Scheme and approval by the Court.

Information relating to the Scheme, including the notice convening the Scheme Meeting and the independent expert's report, will be included in the Scheme Book that will be sent to Altona shareholders over the next few days.
