Diamet-type buyout - what happens to shares?Does anyone know any information about what became of investor's shares who owned DiaMet and/or Aber at the time they were bought out? For instance, Diamet sold 80% to BHP, while Chuck and Stu retained 20% (I believe). So what happened to the shareholder's shares?
And with Aber, they sold 60% to Rio Tinto and retained 40%. Did the shareholders have to sell 60% of their shares, or did Aber pocket the cash and the price of the shares rose to the $40 range to account for this cash influx?
Thanks for any info.
