Kinross adopts new 'poison pill'

Dual-listed miner Kinross Gold has adopted a new shareholder rights plan to replace the expiring existing document from March 29, the company announced on Thursday. The new plan will ensure that Kinross and its shareholders continue to receive the benefits associated with the current shareholder rights plan, designed to ensure that shareholders have an equal opportunity to participate in a take-over bid and receive full and fair value for their Kinross common shares.
