Rio Tinto Group said there may be opportunities to work with
Aluminum Corp of China, also known as Chinalco, the Chinese metals
company that became the co-owner of a nine-percent stake in Rio
earlier this month.
"It is clear that there may be opportunities for us to work
together," Rio Chairman Paul Skinner said yesterday in a company
presentation in London. Skinner said Rio met the company after
Chinalco, in conjunction with United States aluminum producer Alcoa
Inc, bought the shares.
