RE: Lundin gets 11% holding by acquiring CGP's 150m + DGRs block17 Sep 2024 13:23
If your scenario is anywhere near, you don't need any announcements, just someone prepared to pay 45p...
In 2016 Maxit was running a process whereby Newcrest would get a stake at c12p/share.
In the middle of that BHP offered to buy a 10% stake at c17p.
The SOLG Board including Scott and advised by Maxit (Sangha) declined the offer and completed the Newcrest deal.
By July 2017 CGP had 10% by virtue of their 'current' 154 million...
Newcrest increased their holding to 14.54% by participating in a £45 million 'Bought Deal' in November 2017
But BHP wouldn't gp away...on 4 September 2018 it bought Guyana Goldfields 6.1% at 27p...a 20% premium over the market
And then on 16 October 2018 SOLG issued a further 100 million shares to BHP at 45p, a 28% premium to the market, giving them 11.2%...
Sangha was advising Solgold...
Just goes to show
