Norilsk Nickel Owners Resume Talks

Reuters reported Norilsk Nickel’s (LSE:MNOD) owners have resumed talks to settle their dispute may possibly hand over control to Vladimir Potanin.

As quoted in the market news:

A refusal by Deripaska’s RUSAL to sell its 25 percent stake in the Arctic miner has escalated into a row about board control and payments to shareholders that have drained cash from Norilsk, valued at almost $30 billion.
