Additional Context

MIND ID, Indonesia's Mining Industry Holding, comprises PT ANTAM Tbk (IDX: ANTM), PT Bukit Asam Tbk (IDX: PTBA), PT Freeport Indonesia, PT INALUM, and PT Timah Tbk (IDX: TINS).

As of June 2024, MIND ID also owns 34% of Indonesia Vale (IDX: INCO).

MIND ID was established by the Indonesian government as the parent company for Aneka Tambang, Bukit Asam, Freeport Indonesia, Inalum, Timah, and Vale Indonesia.

The company began its journey in November 2017 when the government transferred the majority shares of Aneka Tambang, Bukit Asam, and Timah to Inalum as part of efforts to form a BUMN holding in the mining industry.

The formation of the holding was expected to create greater operational synergy among its members, reducing operational costs. Additionally, the holding was anticipated to promote downstream processing of products from its member companies.

In December 2022, Inalum was separated from MIND ID to focus on the aluminum business and prepare for an initial public offering (IPO). The government then reclaimed the majority shares of Aneka Tambang, Bukit Asam, Freeport Indonesia, and Timah held by Inalum and transferred them to MIND ID.
