KMT.N to buy ATI.N tungsten materials business for $605 mln
KMT.N to buy ATI.N tungsten materials business for $605 mln(Reuters) - Kennametal Inc (KMT.N) said it would buy Allegheny Technologies Inc's (ATI.N) tungsten materials business for $605 million to boost supply of the raw material used to make its metal-working tools, increasing its exposure to aerospace and energy markets.

I'm expecting this Woulfe Mining strategic agreement with IMC to be fast tracked, now that IMC's competion in the tool making market has gotten a head start on them by securing a long term tungsten supply.
After the Sangdong tungsten project is completed. I think it would be safe to say that Woulfe Mining could easily sell their portion of the Sangdong tungsten mine and ATP plant for $605+ million dollars to Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway. That equals out to a $1.50+ price per share stock price on Woulfe Mining.
I know if I was in Buffett's shoes and could forsee that alot of my other companies (IMC) in the tungsten tool making business could possibly grind to a halt because the companies lacked an adequate supply of long term tungsten.
Then I'd make it a priority to obtain 100% control of that strategic metal, to insure that did not happen. Especially now that Buffett's competion has gotten a head start over IMC. Kennametal Inc (KMT.N) is securing their long term tungsten supply by purchasing Allegheny Technologies Inc's (ATI.N) tungsten materials business for $605 million to boost supply of the raw material used to make its metal-working tools.
