(From BBC News) Barrick Gold has ended talks to sell a controlling stake of its African business to China’s state-owned miner, China National Gold Group.
The firms failed to agree on a value for a 74% stake in African Barrick Gold, Tanzania’s largest gold miner.
The $3bn (£1.9bn; 2.3bn euros) deal would have been the largest gold firm takeover involving a Chinese company.
