Genesis Minerals and Vault Minerals agree to merge

Vault holders receive 0.7629 Genesis shares plus A$0.475 in cash per share, about a 15.7% premium, valuing Vault at roughly A$5.6bn. Genesis’s offer displaced an agreed deal between Vault and Regis Resources. Implementation is expected by November 2026.

Why it matters. A superior proposal in action: the target’s board switched bidders, and the first suitor declined to match.
