The board of Canadian nickel miner Noront Resources has noted that Andrew Forrest’s Wyloo Metals has not yet made a binding offer for the company, and it may never make such an offer. Noront is continuing to back the $C325m ($351.5m) takeover bid from BHP, arguing that is the only binding offer that has been made. BHP’s bid values Noront at $C0.55 per share, and the resources group has not ruled out matching or topping Wyloo’s non-binding offer of $C0.70 a share.
