Oro Mining Update on Proposed Wexford Offer
![Oro Mining Update on Proposed Wexford Offer](https://www.minenportal.de/media/goldseiten-news.jpg)
The Special Committee has engaged Ross Glanville & Associates Ltd. ("Ross Glanville") of Vancouver to provide an opinion on the financial adequacy of the proposed offer. While Ross Glanville's opinion has not been finalized, it has advised the Special Committee that, based on its preliminary assessment, the consideration proposed to be offered by Wexford to Oro shareholders is financially inadequate. The Special Committee also wishes to advise that, based on its review to date, its preliminary view is that the proposed Wexford unsolicited offer significantly undervalues the shares of Oro, is highly opportunistic in terms of timing and is clearly intended to take advantage of the pervasive fear that has existed in the market for junior resource companies over the last several months. The Special Committee also wishes to confirm that the Company has not, and presently has no intention to, provide support to Wexford in any form in connection with its proposed offer.
The Company again advises Oro shareholders not to deposit any Oro common shares to any offer made by Wexford and not to take any action concerning the possible Wexford offer until Oro shareholders have received further communication from the Board of Directors of Oro. In the event that an actual offer is made, the Board of Directors of Oro will issue a directors' circular concerning the offer. The directors' circular will contain important information including the determination of the Board of Directors of Oro with respect to a recommendation to Oro shareholders.
