Xstrata reaches deal with Sudbury nickel miners

TORONTO, Feb 1 (Reuters) - Anglo-Swiss miner Xstrata Plc
has reached a tentative deal with unionized workers at
its nickel mining operations in Sudbury, Canada, the union said
on Monday, averting a strike.

In a statement on its website, the Canadian Auto Workers
union said it had reached a deal after a marathon bargaining
session that stretched several hours past the midnight Sunday
strike deadline.

About 570 workers had been set to walk off the job if a
deal were not reached. The labor talks have taken place in the
shadow of a strike of more than 3,000 workers at Brazilian
miner Vale's Sudbury nickel operations.
