HONG KONG, July 31 (Reuters) - Shares of China Molybdenum Co Ltd rose 5.1 percent on Wednesday as its Hong Kong-listed stock resumed trade after Australian regulators cleared its purchase of a majority stake in the Northparkes copper mine from Rio Tinto.
The shares are set to open at HK$3.07 per share, their highest opening since June 10, outpacing a 0.3 percent fall in the benchmark Hang Seng Index.
Australia's foreign investment board approval of the purchase of a majority stake in Northparkes cleared a significant hurdle for the $820 million deal. (Reporting by Donny Kwok; Editing by Paul Tait)
