Managing Director Paul Atherley commented: "Following the sale we will have in excess of US$44 million in cash which will enable us to draw on our six years' experience in China to identify projects located in those countries and commodities which are of interest to Chinese groups.
We will continue to be located in Beijing and will work closely with Chinese technical, investment and regulatory groups in assessing early stage projects which have the potential to meet Chinese development criteria."
