Valuefinder another article.
'The price paid per ounce in this deal was well below the 5-period moving average paid for gold juniors, which was at $85.73 following the Continental Gold (OTCQX:CGOOF) acquisition by Zijin Mining (OTCPK:ZIJMF). This suggests that despite a much higher gold (GLD) price, gold juniors are still not getting the respect they deserve from suitors when being acquired. This is not ideal for investors hoping for massive premiums and suggests that there's no reason to overpay for development stage juniors above the $60.00/oz level.'
RE: Can anyone have a stab at copper value13 Jun 2020 20:36
Thanks valuefinder. So based on your calculation of 20m ounce at $200 there could be two scenarios:
1. 5% acquired at fair value say £150m (£900m/30*5). Use this to fund any capital costs required for GGP remaining 25%?! The remaining 25% will be realised over the life of the mine... 2. Hav 30% is purchased for £900m. This would be a significant capital outlay for newcrest.

'there have been six gold producers acquired since 2015 above $100 million market caps, and the average price paid for these assets has been $151.31/oz.'
Most recent acquisition was March 2020 where 9.9m ounce was acquired for $67.47 per ounce where AISC/oz was $728.
Any questions about payment to newcrest for using their facilities seem to be ignored! Anyone know how the 75p has been reached? What value is being assigned per ounce?
The third leg of BP’s investment in renewable energy is the joint venture with Bunge of Brazil that produces vehicle fuel as ethanol. Bodes well for long-term outlook for @Sunbird_Africa and #CNEL ?? https://t.co/NkIimGhyhR
The $300m cash flow surely belongs to pmo as the acquisition date is 1 January. So by not coming over to pmo it is effectively part of the consideration paid?
As an example if PMO paid $625m they will have received cash of $300m. However they are now paying $325m (including the deferred consideration) but don't receive cash of $300m as BP are keeping it?
Estimated abandonment obligations reduced to $240m from $600m however BP are now retaining $300m which will have otherwise been transferred to PMO as part of the acquisition? Is this how others read it?
Original price $625m Less Cash retained $300m by BP Less Deferred payment $115m subject to higher future oil and gas prices New amount payable $210m
ARCM are getting new shares at a discounted price of 26.69p which equates to approximately $27.5m. The proceeds will part fund the $210m. 'ARCM will use the new shares to reduce its current short position'. Not a bad deal for ARCM!! Allows them to significantly reduce their short position off market.
How will the remaining balance of $210m be funded?
RE: So that's the reason for the rise4 Jun 2020 20:13
Read the RNS and whilst there are some delays i believe the company is in a strong position.
Shell are fully committed to drilling Pensacola and Selene prospects.
Potential farm out on further two licences. Second half 2020?!
Multiple licences applied for with results expected this summer. One has been made jointly with an established international operator.
Strong cash position and fully funded until Mid 2022 (including share of two exploration wells).
Cost reduction exercise carried out.
Potential to acquire cash generative production. 'Window of opportunity that the company will look to capitalise on as appropriate in order to enhance shareholder value.'
The share placing is fully underwritten which shows strong appetite and demand.
The raise is at a discount of 8.7%. Avct raised at a discount of 4.4% and there share price is currently higher than the placing. IWG raised at a discount of 8.1% and there share price too is currently higher than the placing.
Other raises via PB would suggest this won't fall to 18p. The money should add value going forward and the fact they are raising at this level shows support.
