ST. JOHN'S — Aurion Resources Ltd. says it has obtained a final court order from the Supreme Court of British Columbia approving a previously announced acquisition by Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd.
The deal, originally announced in April, will see Aurion shareholders receive $2.60 per share in cash for a total of about $481 million. The transaction remains subject to approval from the TSX Venture Exchange and other conditions, with an expected close date around June 15. Last week, Aurion shareholders approved the acquisition, with 99.94 per cent voting in favour of the transaction.
