Kerry Stokes-backed Genesis Minerals and St Barbara have revealed plans for merger that will consolidation gold assets in WA’s Leonora region.

The Raleigh Finlayson-led Genesis Minerals has pulled off a deal to consolidate gold assets in the historic mining precinct of Leonora in Western Australia through a merger with St Barbara.known as Hoover House, a nod to former US president Herbert Hoover who worked in the WA goldfields in the 1890s.

Under the scheme of arrangement, Genesis shareholders would receive 2.034 new fully-paid shares in St Barbara for each Genesis share.

“By combining with St Barbara, we are creating Hoover House, the premium Australian gold company we envisaged, with sustainable, high-quality production,” he said.A is a key component of our multipronged growth strategy, and our team has a strong track record of executing accretive transactions. Consolidation of the world-class Leonora district is a natural fit for Genesis.
