RE:From Northern MinerThanks Weeble, I thought this part was interesting:
"McCunn admits that with a great land package and a fairly modest market cap, Alio Gold could become a takeover target. When asked if
Leagold Mining (TSX: LMC) might be interested, McCunn acknowledges he’s heard the rumors.
“The new owners of Leagold are intending to build a company like they did at Endeavour Mining, where they built a company in West Africa through acquisitions, so there’s speculation about who they might acquire first,” he says.
“I guess potentially we’d be a good fit—there’s always that potential—but our mission is to build a mid-tier gold mining company, so we’ll keep doing the right things, and if someone wants to buy us, we’ll run like hell and make them tackle us from behind.”
