Mergers and Acquisitions
“Partnering with Osisko Mining provided vital local expertise, community ties and regulatory insight, enabling a fast and effective integration. French is now Gold Fields’ third official language. When the chance came to acquire 100% of Osisko, the decision was easy and the transition seamless.”
Andreanne Boisvert, VP Environment and Community Relations, Gold Fields
“Our acquisition of Québec Precious Metals was a strategic and mutually beneficial move. The transaction followed Newmont’s sale of the Éléonore mine to Dhilmar, creating an opportunity to consolidate nearby properties and potentially supply ore to Éléonore’s mill, while also enhancing our regional discovery potential.”
Tim Clark, CEO, Fury Gold Mines
“I expect the consolidation trend to continue moving forward. Junior companies are currently undervalued, and access to capital and investment conditions have been challenging. A merger can be an effective way to advance in this current economic environment, provided you select the right partners.”
Ernest Mast, President and Managing Director, Cygnus Metals
“I sought to "buy low" during a downturn, and the NewOrigin acquisition was very much part of that thesis. In James Bay and critical minerals more broadly, consolidation is not only likely – it is necessary. Many small land packages lack sufficient scale.”
Rick Breger, President and CEO, Harfang Exploration
