Anglo American Rejects BHP Offer; Gatos Silver's Mineral Findings; IperionX Installs New Furnace And More: Friday's Top Mining Stories

Author: austin@walkonholdings.com | April 26, 2024 04:52pm

Top Stories for April 26, 2024:

  1. Anglo American (OTC:AAUKF) rejected the $39-billion all-share takeover bid from BHP Group (NYSE:BHP), calling it “highly unattractive” and undervalued. 

The offer included conditions like demerging Anglo American's stakes in Amplats and Kumba Iron Ore and Anglo’s board cited the bid as opportunistic, dilutive to shareholder value and risky.

Despite BHP claiming a 31% premium, Anglo emphasized the proposal underestimated the value of its significant copper holdings.

CEO Dale Andres noted these findings will enhance the next resource estimate due in the third quarter of 2024. 

Key intercepts included significant silver, zinc, lead, gold and copper grades.
