ASX-listed TerraCom has acquired a 19.9% stake in the share capital of Universal Coal, a South African coal company, from Coal Development Holding. TerraCom is spending a total of A$34.6 million in cash and shares for this transaction.
The acquisition provides the company with indirect interests in major coal assets in South Africa. Assets include the Kangala, New Clydesdale, North Block Complex, Eloff and Ubuntu mines.
