Glencore-backed group looks to rescue cobalt refiner Sherritt

  • Glencore-backed Kyma Capital is bidding for control of Sherritt International, a Canadian miner with North America's only significant cobalt refinery, challenging a Trump-linked family office.
  • The bid is complicated by US sanctions on Cuba, where Sherritt has a joint venture, leading to operational halts and financial distress for the company.
  • Both parties aim to secure refining capacity for strategic metals outside China, with the outcome dependent on navigating sanctions and potential refinancing.
