The company will acquire shares in Mako Gold for a consideration of one Aurum share for every 25.1 Mako shares, and will not further increase the offer, the filing said.
Mako Gold's board unanimously recommended that remaining shareholders accept the offer, which expires on Jan. 31, in the absence of a superior proposal, according to the filing.
