Metgasco Jumps on Takeover Talk

METGASCO'S stock price soared today on speculation the junior CSG company is under potential takeover attack.
The stock is trading up 18 per cent at 51 cents a share in a down market, valuing the company at over $170 million compared to just $110m one week ago.

Queensland based ERM Power has just acquired a 6 per cent stake in the company and given the trading volume other big bets are being laid.

The most obvious player is LNG, which is 20 per cent-owned by China National Petroleum and is building an LNG plant on Fisherman's Landing at Gladstone and is short of gas.
