Nov 18 (Reuters) - Canadian miner Orla Mining ( ORLA )
said on Monday it would buy the Musselwhite Gold Mine in Ontario
from Newmont ( NEM ) in a $850 million all-cash deal, part of
which is contingent on gold prices.
Orla said the deal will be funded through a combination of
cash, existing undrawn debt capacity, new indebtedness, a gold
pre-pay facility and convertible bonds led by its existing
cornerstone investors.
The company said the deal would help more than double its
gold production to over 300,000 ounces.
