» Chinalco, China's top aluminum producer, confirmed that it is considering "alterations" to a proposed US$19.5 billion investment in Australian miner Rio Tinto, but dismissed the possibility of reducing its stake purchase from 18 to 15 percent.
» General Manager Xiong Weiping told Caijing that speculation that Chinalco may offer to reduce the stake it plans to take in Rio Tinto are merely "market rumors."
