NEWS
From what appeared an increasingly acrimonious JV, Gold Road Resources has surprisingly accepted a $3.7 billion merger proposal from Gruyere partner Gold Fields.

REGIONAL ROUND-UP
Our regular circumnavigation takes us through Africa – where Prospect Resources is enjoying copper exploration success in Zambia and Traka Resources is hoping for a gold discovery from its new venture – to the US where Jindalee Lithium finds itself on the fast-track to approvals and finally Brazil where Alvo Minerals is looking to acquire an advanced gold asset from a major producer

Paydirt provides comprehensive coverage of the two-day conference across more than 20 pages
