Mexico: Lafarge has announced plans to sell its 47% stake in its Mexican cement business to Mexico's Elementia SA de CV for US$225m in cash. Lafarge and Elementia operate three cement plants in Mexico, with the former owning 53% of their joint venture. The transaction is pending regulatory clearance and has to fulfil a number of customary closing conditions.
