Qiao Xing Universal Resources Provides an Update

Qiao Xing Universal Resources, Inc. (NASDAQ:XING) update on the progress of the proposed privatization of its 61%-owned subsidiary Qiao Xing Mobile Communication Co., Ltd. (NYSE:QXM).

The press release is quoted as saying:
The Company is an emerging Chinese resources company, with a focus on several strategically important nonferrous metals such as molybdenum and copper. In April 2009, the Company acquired a 100% equity interest in China Luxuriance Jade Company, Ltd. (“CLJC”). CLJC, through its wholly owned Chinese subsidiaries, owns the rights to receive the expected residual returns from Chifeng Haozhou Mining Co., Ltd. (“Haozhou Mining”), a large copper-molybdenum poly-metallic mining company in Inner Mongolia, China. XING’s molybdenum business started operation in July 2009 and generated net income of RMB64.2 million (US$9.4 million) in the second half of 2009. Based on the initial success of the Company’s molybdenum business as well as an extensive study of China’s macro economic trends, XING plans to further consolidate its strategy to become a pure resources company with meaningful scale and is actively evaluating additional acquisition opportunities in the resources industry.
