Teck-Anglo merger advances as Glencore plays hardball

Teck Resources (TECK) and Anglo American (AAL) are advancing their merger, with a special dividend of $4.5B by Anglo American extended to 45 days. The merged company will have headquarters in Canada, with primary listing in London. Integration of Teck's Quebrada Blanca and Anglo American's Collahuasi mines could add $1.4B in annual earnings, but Glencore (GLEN) is demanding a high price for its 44% stake in Collahuasi, potentially delaying the benefits.
