(Adds no comment from Anglo American )
July 28 (Reuters) - Anglo American Plc AAL.L has rebuffed informal approaches by Indian mining and metals tycoon Anil Agarwal, Bloomberg reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
Agarwal, who has majority control of Hindustan Zinc Ltd HZNC.NS through Vedanta Ltd VDAN.NS , contacted Anglo to discuss potential ideas including a combination with the Indian zinc miner, Bloomberg reported. (http://bloom.bg/2aNIASf)
Vedanta sweetened its offer to take over subsidiary Cairn India Ltd CAIL.NS last week, after an initial bid had been stymied for a year. Ltd and Hindustan Zinc were not immediately available for comment.
Anglo American declined to comment.
