(the “Issuer”). Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 2 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D.
ITEM 1. | SECURITY AND ISSUER. |

The security that is the subject of this Schedule 13D is the Common Shares of the Issuer. The name and address of the Issuer are China Natural Resources, Inc., Room 2205, 22/F, West Tower, Shun Tak Centre, 168-200 Connaught Road Central, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong.
ITEM 2. | IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND. |
Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
The reporting persons are Li Feilie, Feishang Group, and Laitan Investments Limited (“Laitan,” and together with Mr. Li and Feishang Group, the “Reporting Persons”). Li Feilie is a natural person, and a citizen of the People’s Republic of China (Macao Special Administrative Region). Feishang Group is a company with limited liability organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands. Laitan is a company with limited liability organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands. The principal occupation of Mr. Li is as a businessman. Feishang Group is wholly-owned by Laitan, and Laitan is wholly-owned by Mr. Li. The principal business of each of Feishang Group and Laitan is serving as a holding company for the equity of the companies that Mr. Li is invested in. The principal business address of each of the Reporting Persons is Room 2205, 22/F, West Tower, Shun Tak Centre, 168-200 Connaught Road Central, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong. During the preceding five years, no Reporting Persons has (i) been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), (ii) been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), or (iii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
ITEM 3. | SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION. |
Item 3 of the Initial Statement is hereby amended and supplemented with the following:
The 9,077,166 Common Shares that are the subject of this Amendment No. 2 were issued by the Issuer to Feishang Group on August 17, 2020, in exchange for 120,000,000 ordinary shares of Feishang Anthracite Resources Limited (“FARL,” and the transaction between the Issuer and Feishang Group, the “Transaction”), pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated August 17, 2020, between the Issuer and Feishang Group (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”). FARL is traded on the main board of the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong, and FARL ordinary shares had an average closing price per share of HK$1.006 over the five business days prior to the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement, indicating a value of HK$120,720,000 for the 120,000,000 FARL ordinary shares received by the Issuer. The Common Shares that are the subject of this Amendment No. 2 were valued in the Stock Purchase Agreement at HK$87,522,000, a 27.5% discount to the HK$120,720,000 value of the FARL ordinary shares, based upon the lack of trading volume in FARL ordinary shares and the assessment of an independent, third party valuation specialist. The description of the Stock Purchase Agreement herein is qualified in its entirety reference to the Stock Purchase Agreement, which is filed as exhibit (b) to this Amendment No. 2.

The Issuer and Feishang Group entered into the Transaction, in part, to increase the equity of the Issuer’s stockholders in the Issuer, and thus to establish compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1).
