Ferrexpo starts action in London over Poltava dispute
Ukraine-focused iron ore group Ferrexpo (LON:FXPO) has started legal action in London to settle a long –running dispute over the Poltava mining project.
Ferrexpo said it has the launched legal proceedings against Gilson in the UK High Court in order to take an active step outside the Ukraine to resolve a dispute that has been running in the Ukrainian courts since 2005.
The iron ore group added that it had received legal advice that the Ukrainian proceedings are without merit.
The dispute centres on the sale of a 40% stake in Poltava in 2002 by Gilson, though the initial hearing, which is due to take place in early February 2012, will be on jurisdictional issues.
Ferrexpo, which is Swiss headquartered iron ore company, supplies pellets used in the manufacture of steel. Its resource base is one of the largest iron ore deposits in the world with Poltava producing approximately 10 million tonnes of iron ore pellets in 2010.
