The government is still looking for ways to acquire a 41.64% divestment of PT Freeport Indonesia shares. Because, in Freeport Indonesia, not only Freeport McMoran controls but also the British-Australian mining company Rio Tinto also controls the operations of Freeport Indonesia.
Rio Tinto is the holder of participating interest alias participafing interest in Freeport Indonesia as much as 40%. Deputy of Mining Business, Strategic Industries and Media of the Ministry of State-Owned Enterprises, Fajar Harry Sampurno explained that related to the divestment plan, Freeport and Rio Tinto are still negotiating.
In the 1990s, both have agreements on financing and operation until 2021. Thus, in the Grassberg mine operations, Tembagapura is divided into two control holders. That is 40% of Rio Tinto's owners and 60% owned by Freeport McMoRan.
At the control of 40% of the operational control, Rio Tinto has so far gained 40% of Freeport's production. However, Rio Tinto has so far not converted the funding as a stake in Freeport Indonesia.
"Well whether 40% converted into shares first, IaIu Inaium take '?" he said during a press conference holding mine at his office on Friday (24/11).
The government through Inalum as a holding mine will take the remaining Freeport shares divestment of 41.64%.
"For the 9.36% (government stock) we are misleading, transferring, submit to the holding BUMN mining first," he said.
The issue of holding, effective when the deed of inbreng shares signed by the Minister of SOEs Rini Soemarno. Also, awaiting Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders (EGM) of holding members, namely PT Aneka Tambang (Antam), PT Bukit Asam (PTBA) and PT Timah Tbk to be implemented November 29, 2019.
Antam president Arie Prabowo Ariotedjo said the consolidation of state-owned holding assets without acquiring a 41.64% divestment of Freeport Indonesia shares total assets of Rp 89 trillion to Rp 90 trillion.
Well, Arie said, if the additional divestment of shares up to 51% of Freeport Indonesia, then the holding assets of state-owned mining is estimated to reach Rp 200-trillion.
"Although it depends on the negotiation later (stock valuation)," he said.

Divestasi Saham Freeport Indonesia Terganjal Rio Tinto
Pemerintah masih mencari cara untuk bisa membeli divestasi 41,64% saham PT Freeport Indonesia. Sebab, di Freeport Indonesia, bukan hanya Freeport McMoran yang menguasai tetapi juga ada perusahaan tambang asal Inggris-Australia Rio Tinto
juga mengendalikan operasional Freeport Indonesia.
Rio Tinto merupakan pemegang hak partisipasi alias participafing interest di Freeport Indonesia sebanyak 40%. Deputi Bidang Usaha Pertambangan, Industri Strategis dan Media Kementerian BUMN, Fajar Harry Sampurno menjelaskan, terkait rencana divestasi itu, Freeport dan Rio Tinto masih berunding.
Tahun 1990-an, keduanya memiliki perjanjian mengenai pendanaan dan pengoperasian hingga tahun 2021. Sehingga, dalam operasional tambang Grassberg, Tembagapura terbagi dalam dua pemegang kendali. Yakni 40% niilik Rio Tinto dan 60% milik
Freeport McMoRan.
Atas kendali 40% kendali operasional itu, Rio Tinto sejauh ini mendapatkan hasil dari 40% produksi Freeport. Namun, memang sejauh ini Rio Tinto belum mengonversi pendanaan itu sebagai saham di Freeport Indonesia.
"Nah apakah 40% dikonversi menjadi saham dulu, IaIu Inaium ambil‘?" kata dia saat konferensi pers holding tambang di kantornya, Jumat (24/11).
Pemerintah melalui Inalum sebagai holding tambang akan mengambil sisa divestasi saham Freeport sebesar 41,64%.
"Untuk yang 9,36% (saham pemerintah) kita inbreng-kan, alihkan, serahkan ke holding BUMN pertambangan dulu," tandasnya.
Soal holding, efektif ketika akta inbreng saham ditanda-tangani oleh Menteri BUMN Rini Soemarno. Juga, menunggu Rapat Umum Pemegang Saham Luar Biasa (RUPSLB) anggota holding, yaitu PT Aneka Tambang (Antam), PT Bukit Asam (PTBA) dan PT Timah Tbk yang akan dilaksanakan 29 November 2019.
Direktur Utama Antam Arie Prabowo Ariotedjo mengatakan, konsolidasi aset holding BUMN pertambangan tanpa mengakuisisi divestasi 41,64% saham Freeport Indonesia, total aset yang akan diperoleh mencapai Rp 89 triliun sampai dengan Rp 90 triliun.
Nah, kata Arie, kalau dengan tambahan divestasi saham hingga 51% Freeport Indonesia, maka aset holding BUMN tambang diperkirakan mencapai Rp 200-an triliun.
"Walau itu tergantung negosiasinya nanti (valuasi saham)," katanya.
