Navan Mining has completed selling its Spanish mining share interests with the disposal of a zinc and copper mine in southern Spain for up to $2.66 million.

Navan said the sale of the Aguas Tenidas zinc mine includes a provision for royalties that could earn the company $2.66 million.

Navan's Spanish subsidiary filed for bankruptcy protection in December 2001 to continue operations.

The Spanish purchaser intends to continue operating under bankruptcy protection, Navan said in a statement.
