• Resumen

  • The article discusses Australian mining giant Rio Tinto's revival of Mongolia's mining sector with its 5.3 billion U.S. dollars expansion of Oyu Tolgoi copper and gold mine in Mongolia. It notes the issues around asset registration processes and regulatory challenges on the creation of collateral security over assets given the local officials' lack of knowledge of the workings of security packages. The Oyu Tolgoi project is said to be the world's largest undeveloped copper-gold mine to date.
