TAKEOVER candidate article Pulling back to the global picture looking for takeover targets, one of my favorites is
Premier Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX:PG). That's Ewan Downie's spin out of Wolfden Resources Inc. with projects that are all potentially big, high grade and in top mining jurisdictions. Most are within spitting distance of
Goldcorp Inc.'s (TSX:G; NYSE:GG) producing assets. Premier is working to proving up significant high-grade, multimillion-ounce potential targets—it has takeover written all over it. I don't know when it will happen, but I think it will. Goldcorp might be happy to see Premier spend its money and do a lot of work for it, but if Goldcorp starts thinking that somebody else may come in and scoop them up, I would expect it to move aggressively.
