Gold miner Predictive Discovery Limited (ASX: PDI) jumped 9% to 48¢ after announcing a transformative $2.3 billion merger with Canadian gold producer Robex Resources Inc. (TSX-V: RBX). The deal, unveiled on Monday, is expected to create a new mid-tier gold company with a strong production pipeline across West Africa. Under the merger plan, Robex Resources shareholders will receive 8.667 shares of Predictive Discovery for each Robex share held, giving Robex investors a significant stake in the combined entity. At the time of writing, PDI’s share price was up 9% to 48¢, reflecting investor confidence in the potential synergies and growth prospects of the deal.

Strategic Expansion in West Africa

The merger will combine Robex’s established production base in Mali with Predictive Discovery’s rapidly advancing Bankan Gold Project in Guinea. The newly formed company will have a diversified portfolio of producing and development-stage assets, strengthening its position in one of the world’s fastest-growing gold regions.

According to both companies, the integration is expected to unlock operational efficiencies and accelerate development timelines, particularly for the Bankan project, which is one of the largest undeveloped gold discoveries in recent years.

Investor Optimism Drives Market Response

Investors responded positively to the news, with strong trading volumes seen in Predictive Discovery shares on the Australian Securities Exchange. Analysts noted that the all-share structure of the transaction demonstrates confidence in the long-term value creation of the combined business.

Market watchers believe the merger could pave the way for increased gold production and improved shareholder returns, while also enhancing the company’s ability to navigate geopolitical and market challenges in West Africa.
