Mongolia’s Erdenes COO Hancock Said to Resign on Cash Crunch - Bloomberg

Mongolia’s Erdenes COO Hancock Said to Resign on Cash Crunch - Bloomberg: "The board of the state-run company accepted Hancock’s resignation this week, the person said, declining to be named before the matter is announced publicly. Hancock was the second- highest executive at Erdenes TT, as the miner is also known, and his role included preparing the company to list in Hong Kong, London and on a domestic bourse, the person said.

The departure throws into question the timing of what was slated three years ago as a $3 billion initial public offering. At that size, the money raised would be equivalent to about 30 percent of Mongolia’s gross domestic product."
