Aeon hesitant to take on all Century's assets and liabilities

ASX-listed junior Aeon Metals has told fellow-listed metals miner MMG that while it is interested in some of the assets that form part of the now-defunct Century zinc mine, in Queensland, the company is unable to buy the entire asset. Aeon Metals chairperson Tom Mann previously said that the company was in confidential discussions with MMG regarding the acquisition of the Century mine, which was placed under care and maintenance in August last year, as these assets could expedite the development of Aeon’s own Walford project.
