Phoenix Gold's (ASX:PXG) directors have unanimously recommended that shareholders reject the takeover offer from major shareholder Zijin Mining Group Co., Ltd (SHA:601899, HKG:2899).
The Board said Zijin’s $0.10 offer was inadequate and does not reflect fair value. Shares in Phoenix last changed hands at $0.13, or 30% higher than the Zijin offer.
