Australian mining magnate Clive Palmer, who is planning to build a replica of the Titanic, is embroiled in a legal spat with China's Citic Pacific 0267.HK +0.20% that threatens to deliver a damaging blow.
准备打造翻版泰坦尼克号(Titanic)的澳大利亚矿业大亨克莱夫·帕尔默(Clive Palmer)与中国中信泰富有限公司(Citic Pacific)卷入了一场法律纠纷。这场纠纷有可能给他带来不利影响。
In 2006, the Australian billionaire leased to state-owned Citic the rights to mine iron ore on his land in Western Australia for about US$415 million. The agreement was one of the first major Chinese investments in Australian resources.
2006年,帕尔默以大约4.15亿美元的价格将其西澳大利亚州土地上的铁矿石开采权出租给中国国有企业中信泰富。这是中国在澳大利亚资源行业第一批重要投资中的一笔。
But the Sino Iron project has been dogged by cost overruns and delays. At about $8 billion, the budget is now more than three times as much as initial estimates when Citic bought in.
但这个名为“中澳铁矿(Sino Iron)的项目屡次出现超支和拖延的情况。目前的预算达到了80亿美元左右,超过中信泰富购进时最初估计数额的三倍。
On top of that, Mr. Palmer has recently threatened to lock Citic out of the mine. He is arguing that the Chinese company must pay royalties from when mining started in 2008. Citic says royalties are owed from a much later date, only after the site starts producing iron-ore concentrates, which is expected to be in March.
