Trans Hex already holds a 40% interest in WCR through its wholly owned subsidiary Trans Hex Diamante.
“Following implementation of the transaction, WCR will become a 67.2% held subsidiary of the group, further enhancing Trans Hex’s management and operational control over WCR and bolstering Trans Hex’s South African footprint,” the company said in a statement on Monday.
Trans Hex has been contracted by WCR to manage the day-to-day operations of its Namaqualand project and to market the diamonds produced at the project.
