NYRSF | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Belgian metals producer Nyrstar NV (Euronext Brussels:NYR) said on
Thursday that it has obtained approval from the shareholders of
Australian mining company Ironbark (ASX:IBG) to increase its stake in
the company to 19.9%.
Nyrstar acquired a stake of 13% in Ironbark in October as a first
tranche of shares under an agreement to acquire a total of 19.9% for

on 35% of the production of the Citronen zinc-lead deposit once
commercial production commences, which is expected to be within three
to five years.
