Shares in China's Sinoma International Engineering Co Ltd climbed 3 percent after it bought a majority stake in German mining equipment firm Hazemag & EPR for 104 million euros ($137 million).

Beijing-based Sinoma, a cement technology firm, bought the 59.09 percent stake from the Schmidt Kranz Group, according to a statement filed by Sinoma's parent company, China National Materials Co Ltd (CNM).

The deal will help Sinoma International expand its reach in mining equipment and has been approved by China's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC), CNM said.

Sinoma's Shanghai shares climbed to their highest since mid-August at the resumption of trading after being suspended on August 28.

Sinoma hired CITIC Securities as a third party financial advisor for the transaction.
