Mergers and acquisitions activity in the mining industry

They face considerable competition from fast-growing companies emerging from India, Russia and China. The industry landscape is set to change dramatically. These changes are accompanying consolidation among all sizes of company and, in some parts of the world, vertical integration moves by metals and power companies are also shaping the sector.

Mining Deals 2007 reviews deal activity in the mining industry. The report is a new companion publication to PricewaterhouseCoopers’ well established Power Deals and O&G Deals reports. Together the trio provides a comprehensive analysis of M&A activity across the extractive and power industries worldwide.

We examine both the rationale behind the overall trends and look at the key individual deals. We look at the year under review, the context of the preceding two years, and ahead to the future direction of deal-making in the sector. We also highlight, in a series of deal dialogues throughout the report, some of the critical issues for companies engaging in deal activity within the sector. Drawing on our global experience as an adviser to mining industry M&A players, our commentary addresses all key markets in the sector.
