SA's Gold Fields Moves to Fully Acquire Australia’s Gold Road in Strategic $2.4 Bln Deal

The South African miner will buy 100% of Gold Road for A$2.52 ($1.63) per share, 12% higher than a previously rejected offer made by Gold Fields in March, according to its press release.

"The acquisition of Gold Road represents a strategically logical and low-risk opportunity to enhance Gold Fields' portfolio through consolidation of the Gruyere Joint Venture [Gruyere gold mine in Western Australia] in which Gold Fields is the operator," read the press release.

Gold Road shares rose as high as 14.5% following the announcement.

The buyout is expected to be completed in October, Gold Fields CEO Mike Fraser told a local media outlet.
