YAMANA GOLD $8.22 – Toronto symbol YRI

>YAMANA GOLD $8.22 (Toronto symbol YRI; TSINetwork Rating: Speculative) (416-815-0220; www.yamana.com; Shares outstanding: 753.3 million; Market cap: $5.9 billion; Dividend yield: 2.0%) has succeeded in its joint $3.9-billion bid with Agnico Eagle Mines for Osisko Mining. Rival bidder Goldcorp has withdrawn its offer.

Agnico Eagle and Yamana will now each own half of Osisko’s assets, including the Canadian Malartic gold mine in Quebec.

The acquisition also lets Yamana diversify beyond South America and Mexico, where it has seven mines. It should also boost the company’s per-share cash flow.

Yamana Gold is still a buy.
