Zambia has agreed with Vedanta Resources Limited to pause hearings on their dispute over Konkola Copper Mines for six months and seek an “amicable settlement”, state mining investment firm ZCCM-IH said on Tuesday.
Zambia in May 2019 handed control of KCM to a state-appointed provisional liquidator, triggering a protracted legal battle with owner Vedanta. Zambia’s mines minister said in July that he had told ZCCM-IH to seek an out-of-court settlement.
