"Gold Fields Ltd. agreed to buy Canada’s Osisko Mining Inc. in a deal valued at C$2.16 billion ($1.6 billion) as soaring prices for the precious metal drive producers to seek expansion. The acquisition, which gives Gold Fields full control of a project in Canada, is the latest step by the South African miner to diversify away from the country where it made its name. Those efforts included a failed bid for Toronto-based Yamana Gold Inc. two years ago. The Johannesburg-listed company will use cash to purchase all outstanding shares in Osisko at a price of C$4.90 apiece, Gold Fields said in a statement Monday. That represents a 66.7% premium to Osisko’s closing price on Friday, according to Bloomberg’s calculations. Gold Fields’ shares declined 3.3% by 1:51 p.m. in Johannesburg." #finance #equipmentfinance #equipmentleasing #financialservices #corporatefinance #mergersandacquisitions https://lnkd.in/eXBksW4B
