A friendly takeover will see kaolin tech joint venture partners Andromeda Metals (ASX:ADN) and Minotaur (ASX:MEP) combine.

The unanimously recommended off-market takeover offer (1.15 new Andromeda shares offered for every 1 Minotaur share) values Minotaur at $108m, or 20.8 cents per share – a 59.8% premium to last close.

MEP surged but $435m market cap ADN didn’t fare as well, falling 17.5% for the day.
