Xtrata and Anglo American are the two largest mining company, has assets of exploration and mining large. The two companies compete to sell the production of mining exploration. However, the condition of the economic crisis affecting the global mining company Xtrata. Xtrata company reported decreased net profit 77 percent in the first six months of this year.

The decline in revenue experienced by the mining company Xtrata create this plan for the merger to an Anglo American.

Following information development plan merger two companies Xtrata and Anglo American.

Davis says he bolstered the case by the shareholders of Xstrata – Glencore International – has confirmed its support for 44bn deal, which will rank as the most significant consolidation in the global mining sector since 2001 and the BHP Billiton merger.

Davis’s persistence despite Anglo’s board rejection of the company shows that the world’s fifth-largest miner is not surrender to the quest to make one of three mining companies.

“They strongly support of the transaction,” Davis to support Bloomberg’s Glencore. Glencore is the world’s largest commodity trader and has 34% of Xstrata, according to Bloomberg data.

Davis said Xstrata merge with Anglo represented the most interesting combinations in the major global mining industry based on two groups of complementary assets, their location and synergies from the enlarged group. He will also be able to compete with the likes of BHP Billiton, Rio Tinto and Brazil’s Vale.

“That’s why I just write to the board of Anglo to put two companies involved in discussions about a merger the same,” he said.

Analysts said that the group will be the world’s largest exporter of hot coal and the largest producer of zinc, copper, chrome and diamonds.

But Anglo’s board last month rejected the proposal from Xstrata, that will dilute the unique exposure to diamond, platinum, and iron ore. It said the term suggested is “unacceptable” and last week CEO Cynthia Carroll said Xstrata offer is unwanted “distraction.”

Mineral resources, the Minister Susan Shabangu also supported Anglo’s rejection of the proposal, saying that monopoly is not healthy, while the local trade unions are also worried about losing jobs.

Xstrata has declined but there would be job losses in SA. Yesterday Davis reiterated that Xstrata was looking for “the same merger” that will combine and mine in Canada, Australia and SA is close to the sites operated by Anglo.

The transaction will add 1bn a year to the enlarged company’s pretax earnings by the third year after the deal, and realize once-off cost of 500m in the first two years after the merger is completed from. Anglo, however, promised to cut the cost of 2bn of its own by 2011, and Carroll said last week the group will reach half of this target by the end of this year.

Davis yesterday said Xstrata has managed to save the 119m during the interim period under review.

“This is an opportunity without a doubt the most serious consideration without the usual defensiveness and disruption that often stand in the way of the pursuit of shareholder value,” he said.

Davis was sure the board will consider the Anglo Xstrata offer. “We have a proposal to gather interest from the Anglo point of view we.

“We have complementary asset base and can benefit from the synergies that will be created from the merger, including the utilization of equipment together,” he said.

Davis said the combined entity will benefit from the recovery of commodity prices as the global economy recovers from the worst recession in decades. They can also develop riskier projects in a larger and more challenging in the region, and implement several major projects without the risk of capital in one region or one project.
