Bre-X unit to merge with oil company
Article Abstract:
Bro-X Minerals Ltd., a Calgary, Canada-based subsidiary of Bre-X Minerals Ltd., plans to merge with Toronto, Canada-based oil company MacDonald Oil Exploration Ltd. The merger plan is subject to the approval of the Alberta Court of Queen's Bench since Bro-X is under the control of a court-appointed monitor. Under the merger, Bro-X stockholders will eventually own half of MacDonald. Tom Devlin, who has been managing Bro-X's daily operations, said the merger with MacDonald would be advantageous to Bro-X shareholder because if Bro-X was dissolved the shareholders will receive nothing.
