It looks like 90% of the vote is required IF it ever comes to a vote on a sale/take over ?
In general terms, a takeover bid involves a bidder making individual purchase offers at a specified bid price to all holders of securities in an ASX-listed Australian company or trust.

- the bidder is entitled to compulsory acquisition if it obtains a relevant interest in at least 90% of the target securities (and has acquired at least 75% of the securities it offered to acquire).
Considering this is a world class deposit that will probably dictate future market prices , I don't think offering a price just surpassing share price all time highs ($1.30 / $5 billion approx) will suffice . Wouldn't there be a larger than 10% block (that can see the true value) even if you just take into consideration the holders that attended the roadshows (including the larger TSE holders) plus the BOD ? An offer of $10 billion shouldn't even be entertained when you look at the likes of LTRs $6.25 billion current market cap
As far as I'm concerned , AVZ still holds the upper hand . If any of the protagonists had a killer blow , they would have used it by now . All they have are stalling tactics . Bullying and lies won't cut it at the ICC & ICSID . AVZ should continue as they are , & not give an inch . We haven't done anything wrong . I can guarantee that the locals of Manono & people of the DRC will be a lot better off if China is not allowed to gain control
