Good afternoon JMNWW,
The answer to your question is Goldcop would probably make a similar offer as they did with GEA, 50/50 fifty percent cash and the other fifty percent in Gold Corp Shares. The Gold Corp Shares would have a cash value of 50 percent of the total offer.
An example if Gold Corp offered $5.00, and you owned 50,000 shares, you would be elegible to receive $125,000 cash and 3,404 Gold Corp Shares (Todays SP $36.72). This is nice if we get the shares before the gold rush is over. Some are predicting gold to go to $1600.
