Teck raises concerns over Reward offer, JV following Rox–Marindi deal

Diversified mining company Teck Resources has raised concern over the offer that joint venture (JV) partner Rox Resources had accepted for its 49% interest in the Reward zinc and lead project, in the Northern Territory.
Under a JV agreement, Rox was required to offer to sell its interest in the project to Teck on the same terms and conditions as any offer it intended to accept. However, Rox said on Tuesday that Teck had raised some concerns with respect to the offer and its compliance with the joint venture agreement. In doing so, Teck had reserved its rights under the JV agreement.
