GS-- I submit that if they had waited, they could have gotten the co. for at least 1/3 less. No one was lining up to buy Plutonic.
This was not like the fight for Santa Fe gold.
However, since they are using shares as currency, who cares?
Maybe they (HM) know their own shares are way overvalued, so they figured, hey, what the hell. Maybe we will have the opportunity to buy HM at 5 bucks.

""Plutonic is one of Australia's leading gold producers, but its share price has tumbled from above
A$7.50 in mid-1996 to A$1.95 recently before closing on Friday at A$2.80.

A trading halt was applied to Plutonic shares on Monday.

Plutonic's results slumped to a net loss of A$63.06 million in the first half of calendar 1997,
following a severe write-down in the carrying value of its mines.

Plutonic chairman Paul McClintock said the deal was supported by the company's 34 percent
shareholder Malaysia Mining Corp Bhd (MMCB.KL), which has two representatives on the
Plutonic board.""

introduce layoffs immediately and lift all restrictions on foreign
exchange, South Korean newspapers reported on Wednesday."

Hi Goldsnow,

I think that we will continue to see alot of this. The time is ripe for
a consolidation in the mining industry. Just like in the US banking industry.
All sectors will probably start consolidating as things start to tighten up.

The garden isn't as rosey as most governments would like to portry.;-)
