The acquisition, approved by the Royal Court of Jersey where MAC Copper is registered, involves Harmony Gold acquiring MAC Copper for USD12.25 ($18.81) per share, giving the copper producer an implied equity value of over USD1 billion [1]. The deal had previously received approval from the Foreign Investment Review Board and the South African Reserve Bank in August [1].
MAC Copper Limited operates the CSA Copper Mine in New South Wales, Australia, which produces 58 underground copper mines. The mine holds a Mining Lease (CML5) over the CSA deposit, supplemented by Mining Purpose Leases (MPL) MPL 193 and MPL 1094. The surrounding exploration tenements (EL5693 and 5983) cover approximately 366 square kilometers [2].
The delisting from the S&P/ASX Small Ordinaries Index follows Harmony Gold's successful acquisition of MAC Copper, marking a significant strategic move for the South African gold miner to expand its operations into the copper sector. The acquisition is expected to enhance Harmony Gold's portfolio and provide access to a critical resource for the global economy's electrification and decarbonization efforts.
