expected to become effective on 18 April 2023 and be implemented on
2 May 2023 .
BHP CEO Mike Henry said:
"This is a strong endorsement from OZ Minerals shareholders on
the value they will receive under the scheme and the hard work of
the OZ Minerals team over many years to create a successful
business. We look forward to bringing together our talent and
resources to create an even stronger organisation."
