RE: OMI strikes gold with Newmont20 Sep 2018 19:24
Ignacio Salazar, CEO of Orosur, commented:
“After a lengthy process of evaluating potential partnerships with a number of companies, we are very pleased to have entered into this significant transaction with an industry leader like Newmont, ......"
I think Newmont might have had to fight off competition from other companies (Barrick Gold may be?)....hence had to pay +102% premium just to secure this deal.
Looks like same modus operandi of MAXIT Capital (our Advisors)....who got a counter offer for Solg by BHP who were paying even higher premium than NewCrest offer price but for a greater Equity stake back then....speculation yes, but very much a possible scenario.....watch this space.
Think High quality of gold grades speaks for itself.
IMHO.
