Merger of US Gold, Minera Andes goes ahead

摘要

When Rob McEwen first proposed the combination of US Gold (uxg-t, uxg-n) and Minera Andes (maI-t, mneaf-o) in June 2011, the chairman, chief executive and largest shareholder of both companies thought the deal easily could be completed by early November at the latest. But it wasn't until Jan. 19, 2012, that the shareholders of both companies finally voted in favour of the merger that will create a new company to be named McEwen Mining.
