MOSCOW, Apr 30, 2009 (Dow Jones Commodities News via Comtex) -- NLKNY | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Russian aluminum giant United Company Rusal could sell its blocking stake in miner OAO Norilsk Nickel (GMKN.RS) in order to pay off a $4.5 billion loan to state development bank VEB, shareholder Viktor Vekselberg told the Vedomosti daily Thursday.

Rusal, which holds a 25% stake in Norilsk Nickel, took $4.5 billion credit with VEB late last year to help refinance foreign borrowing. VEB currently holds the Norilsk stake as collateral for the loan.

"We may just sell it and pay off the debt," Vekselberg, who holds a significant stake in Rusal through his holding company Renova, is quoted as saying.

As well as the $4.5 billion loan, Rusal owes $2.1 billion to other Russian banks and $7.4 billion to international banks. The company has been planning a long-term debt restructuring.
